‪Trimensional 3-D Scanner iPhone App‬

Grant Schindler, research scientist in Georgia Tech's College of Computing, created Trimensional, the first app that allows users with an iPhone 4 or recent iPod Touch to take 3-D scans of faces or other objects and share them by e-mail.

Now in the latest update, users can also e-mail animated videos of their 3-D models. For a few dollars more, artists and designers can even export their creation to CAD programs or 3-D applications, such as Maya.

Schindler took an idea he developed while a student at Georgia Tech and with the help of Tech's business incubator, the Advanced Technology Development Center, has turned it into a real product.

@zimmie10 You need to watch what you say. That was a mean spirited comment. If you don't have anything nice to say about anyone, just don't say it. Grant Schindler is a BRILLIANT person!

Outstanding.

The output is still too rough for my purposes.

Full body scans too far off?
