1. input.py : User input handles only this script => no further modules need to be changed
2. module1.py : choosing the scan resolution
   • from output summaries, use fov and chosen res
3. module2.py : transform mesh object to points
4. module4.py : create potential scan locations around the object and store in final_pts
5. module6.py : create satisfied_set and visible_set for each potential scan location
6. module7.py : For each object point count the number of potential scan locations that satisfies the quality requirement
   • counting number tells which object point is relatively easier to be captured.
7. module8.py : compute low_score_criteria and find what object points are in low_score_criteria
8. module9.py : choose the first_scan and then choose subsequent scan positions until it closes to the first position
