Last year we purchased a Structure Sensor 3D camera and have started to teach young people how to use the digital technology to make 3D printed mash-up objects. The first part of this process is to 3D scan people. These images a screenshots of a people being scanned with the Structure Sensor.
We use Meshmixer to make mashup 3D models and then 3D print them. Here is a picture of a 3D printed model made by a young person at BYC. You can see the process of how models are made in the photos below.
