Shadow 3D : smartphone 3D scanner based on shadow geometry

3D scanner based on shadow geometry.

- All you need is your smartphone except a simple jig to be printed and a blank postcard. No laser projectors or motors needed.
- It can measure smooth surface which will fail with photogrammetric method, because it is based on structured light principle.
- Image processing is performed on web browser (Google chrome only). Either PCs or smartphones can be used to generate 3D mesh file.
- The web app can generate standard PLY file which contains mesh and texture data. It can also generate XYZRGB file (colored point cloud format).

Before printing the thing, ***please make sure that your smartphone can fix focus and exposure while taking a movie!!***
