A new tool from Strata, called Strata Foto 3D CX, uses technology developed by Canon and Creative Dimension Software to turn any digital camera into a 3D Model scanner.
Strata Foto 3D CX lets you use a standard digital camera to capture real-world objects as fully textured 3D models. Its ideal for difficult to model objects like organic shapes, soft forms and hand made items.
Looks like you simply take several pictures of the image from multiple angles and it reconstructs a basic 3D model and textures it automatically. It comes with an optional (printable) mat to aid in image registration, and plugins to allow you to manipulate the models in Photoshop.
Buy it now for only $695.
Thanks for covering Strata. We’re marking our 20th year pioneering 3D software for designers and we really appreciate the interest of sites like Vizworld.
