      Recent research results turning a normal smartphone into a mobile 3D scanner... no calculation on a server needed!

            Autocad now has a free product that will do this called 123D Catch.

            Going to put a lot of 3D artists out business.

              Well... you probably missed the point, 123D Catch (or at least last time I tried it) requires images to be send to a server for 3D model calculations, this uses only smartphone to do the trick.

              It was not about how 3D scanning puts someone out of business.

                I missed that part about sending back to the servers.

                I was just making fun of putting 3D artists out of business. Good 3D artists will always be needed. πŸ˜‰

                  I do not believe it can scan something that has not yet been designed, 3D artists have a bright future.
