Full Body Scanning with the Scan-O-Tron 3000. Step #1: Build the vertical rail for kinect scanning PrevNext 3D-print the parts from thingiverse.com/thing:127968.
(Or try a couple modifications from Make Labs test build parts). I printed mine 100% solid with rectilinear fill. You need 2 of the MakerSlide end caps. Step #2: Fashion a base as shown, with 2 lengths of 40mm extrusion: one ~560mm and one 460mm. Step #6: Scan and print your subjects. Now we’re ready to get scanning! Step #7: Record your scan and reconstruct the data. Hit the Record button and start scanning! Step #9: Process your mesh. So now you’ve got a mesh scanned, but it’s not 3D-printable yet because it’s just a skin and it’s full of holes.
Step #10: Scale the mesh and print. The one issue Skanect doesn’t address is scaling. 3D scanner. I was doing some research on making 3d models out of many many pictures and i came across a good many software and 2 of my favorite are - 123d catch by autodesk ( ) - 3dsom ( ) 123d catch is more powerful and user friendly in my opinion, you just snap a ton of pictures, upload and wait, then TADA its done. they have somehow managed to determine the location of your camera relative to the object from all that pictures you take and through some modern magic build a 3d model and send it back to you.
But I my case, i preferred 3dsom as all the computing is done locally on my laptop which is better for me as my isp decided i dont need any upload speed. As you can guess, uploading some 50-100 high quality photos at 0.1Mbps is not too productive. Anyway, 3dsom has its limitations too, one of which is that it produces models that are very distorted when not done meticulously. A Man with a Scan - Ben Heck's 3D Scanner.

If you've ever wanted a 3D scanner now's your chance. By pledging support to this project, you can have your very own 3D Scanner. All the Early backers, batch #1, #2, #3 and #4 packs are sold out and batch #5 is now closed. The Matterform 3D Scanner allows anyone to take a physical object, and turn it into a digital 3D model on your computer. From there, you can print your file on any 3D printer, or online printing service. We’ve been developing the 3D scanner hardware and software from scratch for the past year and now we’re ready to release it to you.
