However, Microsoft has just been awarded a patent for the step preceding 3d printing: making 3d printable digital models of objects, specifically after scanning.
and generating 3d models on your PC. If you might wonder how in the world that can be patented after all,
there are quite a few scanners out there already the crucial difference is that Microsoft patent revolves around scanning objects without placing them on revolving plates
and the software does the rest. The turntable is removed completely from the scanning process The patent also concerns the technology ability to distinguish between the object, the users fingers and even the objects around it.
The result simply consists of high resolution images with prominent surface patterns and good color quality.
Of course, this makes the life of the home user much easier. Scanning itself should become simpler,
as Youtube the Patent Yogi explains in the video above. Among its applications are game development and making animations as realistically as possible,
enabling users to quickly scan and digitally interact with models around them. And what about mounting these scanners of Google street view cars?
This scanning ability could be used to make maps far more interactive and realistic, while the scans can also be used to measure distances.
