Camera takes images while you move slowly around the object. An algorithm then analyzes the images for distinguishing characteristics. A point cloud is formed based on the orientation of the camera and the captured images. The point cloud is very rough and lacks color. A mesh is created based on the point cloud information. Simply put, the mesh is a collection of 3D points known as vertices. The algorithm creates the mesh by using the points from the cloud. This allows it to form itself after scanning the object.
