The idea of using the 3d scans for making a head cast without having to get a silicon mold done is GENIUS 😍

[@mmustangg2]

Print the scan on a 3D printer and you'll have a plastic bust.

[@theherrdark4834]

And a really great way to make interesting props for Halloween, also making forms for vacuum forming. One can use it to make designs and make interesting custom silicone facial appliques. This opens up more interesting possibilities for cosplay and props.

[@luigi8962012]

I have been in 3d printing for 8 years. and I can tell you the best tool for 3d printing that you can use, is the Xbox connect. look into it and you will be so happy, is so simple just scan and you will see the 3d on your program don't forget to delete the background then transfer the image to cura then slice and print, and your all done. it works just like the 7.000 $ scanners

Wow...! That was really cool! I had no idea how those things were made. I'd love to have a head scan of myself made and the thought of being encased in latex and plaster scares the crap out of me. Just as soon as I get a camera and a computer **looks innocent** I'll give this a shot. Thanks, Benny!

One advantage of EM3D over Trnio is that EM3D scans are automatically to scale, whereas photogrammetry has to be resized. So, you'll probably want to start with EM3D, so you have a model to scale the Trnio scan to.

[@Ytsssss364]

Benni, thanks for making such an easily viewable, easy to follow intro video that covers all important points - and shows the value of two methods eg infrared vs photogrammetry. i am not good at three-d modelling and was trying to stich together a "front" and "back" image of a product i need to make for a film - your video has helped me see the light - this is so cool. I will now set up my DSLR and put my real-world object on a turn-table dais and lock off my camera with a tripod - I'll film video and then just have Adobe whatever turn my video into an image sequence for meshroom - bravo! thanks so much from Toronto, Canada! I will buy your book!

[@VossieBear]

I have a 2020 IPad Pro with the Lidar sensor, I've used it for all sorts of 3d scanning. I've scanned people, cars, my entire house, its absolutely incredible and gives you so many options for creativity

[@no-page]

What software did you use?

[@BadWolfJK]

I've been wanting to do this EXACT thing for a long time!

[@SuperTonkers]

This was so helpful! Thank you! Hope both of you and the fur babies are doing great! 🎃❤️

[@AntonGudenus]

There is a very important distinction between passive photogrammetry (calculating the 3D mesh from video or photos while the scanner itself doesn't emit any light; Meshroom uses this system), structured light systems (face-id and the like) and time of flight systems (LIDAR). Passive photogrammetry (or videogrammetry) has no real range limitations (you could 3D scan a mountain using photogrammetry), it very much relies on a well calibrated camera, needs either multiple photos from different angles while the subject doesn't move and greatly benefits from uniform lighting. It also needs quite the amount of processing power and RAM for large projects as the 3d model gets calculated by image matching alone. Structured light systems on the other hand have a strong range limitation, as the projected mesh/points need to be clearly visible, in focus and well spaced. These systems work best with little to no light except for the scanner itself. They need a clearly calibrated projector and camera and can calculate basic 3D information from a single angle and need a lot less processing power. TOF systems scan the object with laser beam to measure how long time it needs to get reflected. They have a minimum and maximum range and generally are rather expensive. The big advantage is that they are able to output a highly accurate point-cloud without any post processing. So maybe you should try the full body scan in a dark room again, as unintuitive as that sounds.

[@pescando]

Very clever. You two are such a talented duo.

[@dontdiediy7630]

Cool work and nice recommendations! The dot projector on the front of the iPhones use IR light. I think they may actually struggle more in natural sunlight, since that is part IR. Maybe try it inside. Some newer iPhones have a lidar module on the back. It's good for scanning larger objects at a larger distance, but I don't think it would give better resolution/accuracy for a head scan.

[@bendubu]

Madness! Nice work my guy!

[@MxMarz-eu2jd]

Would it be possible to elaborate on how to prepare the 3-D scan for printing as mentioned at 13:20 ? Should thickness be added/how to divide it up if printer is too small/how to crop the neck/etc? Thank you for this informative video! Love all of your work! 💕

I would have believed Benny had 3D printed that himself.

[@BowsettesFury]

That’s pretty cool never realized it was that detailed. I wonder if it’s possible to scan gaming joysticks and have 3D printed replacements made from the image.

[@shaneclayton2285]

Rarely do I watch a video from start to finish, but really enjoyed this and your presentation style thanks. My phone is too old to be useful and Trnio looks quite labour intensive. For smaller objects I am looking at adapting a 3D printer to become a scanner. I remember when we adapted pen plotters to be early/primitive 2D scanners! My other thought for bigger scans was to put Svetlana on some sort of controlled turntable - maybe some failed exercise device and while it turns put my phone/camera on a vertical rod and controlling the fall of the camera either hydraulically or mechanically [3D printer stepper motor!?!]... Thinking about your experience with the top of heads, maybe the rod should be curved so that the camera starts with the lens pointing almost vertically downwards!

[@jbot505]

Awesome!

[@OverlordMaggie]

I enjoy the mention of 3-D printing! If you need a replacement part for something that broke (i.e. the cap of my water bottle) you could scan the piece, fix it in Blender, and print! Then you're not tossing the whole bottle, you could reuse the removable gasket in my example!

[@steamcastle]

the IR system used in the iphone is made by the same company the made the system for the Kinect, well it is the same technology, and apple bought the company that had made the IR system for Microsoft kinect, before they came out with they first phone with a 3d sensor

[@taliwithershins2288]

The iPhone 12 has Lidar camera which is used for topographic scanning. I would really like to see the comparison with that

[@VictimsOfChaos]

The designer/programmer of the EM3D scanning app has an iPhone 12. At this time, based on the iPhones technology, the TrueDepth/FaceID of the front facing camera currently allows for a higher resolution scan.

[@3dartstudio007]
