Sorry if this has been posted here before. Thought I would share the info. Quite interesting.
I just downloaded it so I haven't had a chance to try it. Anyone have any experience with it?
Good preview and tutorial

That's a cool video. That YouTube channel seems interesting as well. Nice find.
Thanks for the link. -
Came across another DIY 3D scanner project: http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2009/03/lego_nxt_3d_scanner.html?CMP=OTC-0D6B48984890

Cool!
The lego one seems a bit slow though. As for the resulting shape of the laser scanner, they should use Whaat's polyreduce plugin

Hi Friends
I've done some tests using DAVID 3D scanner.It works pretty well, but you need quite a long time before getting
some affordable results. The most important as said in Systm sequence, is to have a really 90°angle "screen".
Then, learning MeshLab and DAVID Scanner is not time saver!
I get still difficulties for the "obj" files alignement and spend time to clean the scansHere are some files I made :
I use an old laser red (IR Spectrometry) and a PHILIPS webcam (1.3 Mpx)MALAISE

wow, that looks really awesome. I'm hooked now! I like projects like this. I also did one on making a whiteboard screen using a wii remote and that was also fun!
just wondering what kinds of things you can scan with this.I would love it if sketchup joined with videotrace! because that is so similar to scanning and yet you can have so much more control over the final model
