Pirate Boat Scan

Let’s GO!

Ahoy! Ever wondered if you could scan the iconic pirate ship at the West Edmonton Mall without walking the plank? Well, I did just that. LiDAR scanning, typically a mundane task that takes us out of town, can actually be an adventure. Rather than spending another night sipping drinks in a hotel room, I chose to take a risk, have some fun, and create a memorable story.

Taking a Risk, Making Memories:

As I roamed the West Edmonton Mall, LiDAR scanner in hand, my target was clear: the legendary pirate ship. In the world of digital twin creation, this was uncharted territory. The excitement was palpable, but so was the risk of getting caught. It’s a classic case of scanning now, apologizing later. And guess what? It was worth it.

Being Accepted:

Surprisingly, when security approached, they were more curious than confrontational. Turns out, one of the guards had studied LiDAR scanning but never pursued it. Our conversation turned into an impromptu seminar on the wonders of creating digital twins, from boats to buildings. This unexpected encounter proved that sharing knowledge can open doors, even in the most unlikely places.

Better Than Expected:

Not only did I gain permission to scan the ship, but the experience turned into a delightful interaction with the mall staff. The scans were phenomenal, proving that sometimes, taking a calculated risk can lead to extraordinary outcomes. The lesson? Embrace the unexpected and make great memories, far better than any lonely hotel room could offer.

In Conclusion:

This adventure was more than just a tale of scanning a pirate ship. It’s a testament to the power of taking chances, embracing the unknown, and the joy of turning a mundane task into an unforgettable experience. So, don’t settle for the ordinary. Take risks, have fun, and who knows? You might just end up scanning a pirate ship and making new friends along the way.
