  • Anyone know where I can find the Real View version of this? It claims a similar thing, only that you can take an object and make a 3-d model in front of your eyes so you can examine it from all directions, like a hologram kinda. I want to see if it really looks like what it does.

  • RealView is not a product yet. As far as the "hologram" experience, if you're referring to the ability to interactively rotate a model on-screen, you can do that with any 3D model, whether produced by hand or with a 3D scanner. What it really comes down to is the quality of the model the scanner creates, and from what I've seen the NextEngine scanner makes the RealView scanner look like a toy.

  • No no no, from what I understand the RealView makes objects holographic in front of you, before your eyes instead of on a screen, so you can see it as if it were physically real. I've heard ideas to use holograms, but they've not yet been used for commercial applications, just for construction of high class buildings, for medical uses, and for govermental uses, but as I said, the commercial industry is yet to access holograms for use.

  • ...mmmkay

  • Insane triangle count :P

    Could these objects be useful in any way?

    Even in the film industrie they don't have triangle counts for objects like that.

    It's still pretty cool though.

  • Well maybe 20 years ago. 110k polys is nothing nowadays. Open this model in ZBrush and you could subdivide it up to 20M polys and still edit it in real-time.
