Kids getting 3D scanned at the Pittsburgh Mini Maker Faire 2012. © Larry Rippel At the 2012 Pittsburgh Mini Maker Faire, I ran a booth where people could get 3D scanned and take home a small printout of themselves. After an intense 7 hours, we scanned over 90 people and printed out over 40 of them.

Going from raw 3D scan to a printable miniature figurine requires a surprising number of steps. Raw 3D scans have holes, extra geometry and artifacts that all need to be dealt with before sending to the printer. In fact, when I first started scanning people back in March, it took me over an hour to manually clean up a scan so that it was able to be printed out. ScanBooth is a collection of software for running a 3D photo booth. Here’s what ScanBooth has to offer: We had a fantastic time showing people the power of 3D scanning and printing at Pittsburgh Mini Maker Faire.
