This video explains the key steps and concepts covered in the practical demonstration, offering a clear understanding of the content optimization process when starting from a scan within the context of augmented reality using WorkLink Create. This is summarized below;

1. Introduction:

   • Overview of the practical demonstration focusing on content optimization when starting from a scan rather than a CAD file.

2. Asset Library and Uploading Scan:

   • Initiating the process by uploading a scan to the Asset Library, similar to uploading a CAD file.

3. Workflow for Triangle Count Reduction:

   • Using the 3D Asset Optimizer to reduce triangle count for optimal performance.
   • Explaining the use of the "Decimate to Target" option and setting a target value (e.g., 20,000 polys).

4. Functionality and Proxy Modeling:

   • Utilizing the existing scan as a 3D reference for functionality.
   • Introducing the concept of basic or advanced proxy modeling within WorkLink Create.

5. Adding Simple Geometry for Functionality:

   • Demonstrating the addition of simple cubes to represent specific components (e.g., circuit breakers) for functional purposes.
   • Highlighting the ability to animate these added geometries as stand-ins for components not present in the scan.

6. Optimizing for Performance:

   • Showcasing the completion of the optimization process for performance, indicating the reduced triangle count in the updated scan.

7. Final Adjustments and Cleanup:

   • Making final adjustments, such as scaling the updated scan to match the original size.
   • Discussing potential cleanup tasks, like deleting the original scan.

8. Hierarchy and Organization:

   • Creating an empty object as a container for the scan and added components, emphasizing organizational structure.

9. Aesthetics Considerations:

   • Briefly mentioning the possibility of adding colors or other aesthetic elements, referencing previous modules covering Aesthetics.

10. Conclusion:

    • Summarizing the workflow for importing and optimizing a scan, integrating simple proxy modeling for enhanced functionality.
    • Illustrating the potential for animation to represent actions involving components not directly present in the scan.
