3D modeling was and is not a cup of tea for many and many people though interested remain aloof because of the lack of knowledge and amount of hard work required but two products ‘Z scanner and a Scene-scanner‘ can change all this.

These are 3D modeling made easier products and even a novice can use it, a three step procedure and you can be 3D animator.

The Z scanner is a product that uses what we call reverse engineering and you just point the camera attached to it on the thing you want to create and voila! You have created a 3D model of it and you have been saved from all the details.

The Z scanner also throws in a 3D printer that will print all the amazing models that you will scan. Just throw $40,000 + $20,000 for the printer and you have a 3D lab of your own.

The other product that can revolutionize the 3D designing is Scene-scanner from Industrial Research New Zealand for unspecified amount.

It also works on the same principle just scan what you want to create and you will have your 3D model in 2 minutes. But the technology is still under development and may take two years to come out of labs.

Possible usages are being sited as 3D design of crime scene for police, medical education, digital archiving and computer animations.
