Scanning around the World

Not sure where to start – 3D Modelling and 3D Printing for the beginner.
Using the Artec Eva Scanner in Russia to 3d scan model Anna Moleva’s face, whose image was used for the video game character  Elizabeth in the commercial for BioShock Infinite.
It’s the same 3D scanner that our Engineers at Wysiwyg 3D use to cyber scan for movies and TVC. Looks like an Iron!
3D Printing is still taking the world by storm all, Why? because it is just so dam clever – from Automotive to Health.
The Laser Cowboys from The Smithosonian Musuem are undertaking a major project “we’re able to capture it in 3D on the computer and deliver that data to a 3D printer that can bring it back into the world.” Using different laser scanning technologies for different objects to later use the digitized form is 3D research and education use”. The video does an excellent job of explaining the 3D Scanning process!
Potential savings could save at least 50% when using highly accurate 3D laser scanning in the construction phase.
Amazing 3d Scans of Nelsons battleship to help restore it. Capturing over 90 billion measurements in over 850 scans, theHMS Victory has been in a dry dock since 1922 at the Historic Dockyard in Portsmouth and now awaits restoration expected to last 20 years.
In the US body scanning used to make better-fitting clothes are being rolled out to the healthcare sector where they will measure the body for obesity and for clinical diagnosis.
World heritage sites getting a dose of 3D Scanning, even our very own Sydney Opera House as well as downtown El Paso.
