I made a 3D Scanner... Cost: 0 Dollars

Using the popular Xbox Kinect hack, I have constructed a very component 3d scanner in my bedroom. All you need is a Kinect, a power adaptor for it, Skanect (trial version), and a chair that can rotate 360 degrees. Check out some of my first scans:



I have to work on better lighting situations, because the colored version makes me look like a zombie. But yeah, this stuff I really, really, really freaking cool. I already scanned my whole family! Only thing with the trail version is that you can't export STLs. However, you can upload your scans to sculpteo and have them printed. Though, printing anything over an inch on that site costs a fortune.

    Last month I hired a company named Onsite3D to take some three-dimensional data of an antique item. They use a 3D laser scanner to collect the data. I was fully satisfied with their service. Best 3D laser scanning service Grand Prairie, Alberta
