While 3-D printers have become relatively cheap and available, 3-D scanners have lagged well behind. Now an algorithm developed by Brown University researchers may help bring high-quality 3-D scanning capability to off-the-shelf digital cameras and smartphones. “One of the things my lab has been focusing on is getting 3-D image capture from relatively low-cost components,” […]
