3D Scanner

Using only a basic webcam, Qi Pan of the Cambridge University Engineering Department has created a program that will make a 3D model of any object shown to it. It works by "Delaunay tetrahedralisation of points obtained from on-line structure from motion estimation, followed by a probabilistic tetrahedron carving step to obtain a textured surface mesh of the object." which sounds like a string of made up words, but seems to work.
