Summary

I scanned my head with an XBox 360 Kinect to test the capabilities of the sensor and then I processed it with the free version of Skanect. Feel free to use this STL for any modeling or printing purposes! It was intended to be just a general bust of a head.

I'd recommend using a higher resolution so you can capture the detail of the scan. rnrnAlso, the head is to size, so it'll have to be scaled down. On the Mini, I went for a scale of 10%.</p></div>

How I Designed This

                <p class="detail-title"><strong>Scanning Process</strong></p>            <div><p>This was the third complete scan I've done with the Kinect and Skanect, and the results have been quite impressive. If you're interested in scanning with a Kinect, you can buy them cheap on websites like eBay. The link below is a guide to scanning that I made for my robotics team. The document includes links to Skanect and the Kinect software you'll need.rnrnhttps://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vQlAAd_E4Zaqtr4LWebuigLqFYwYb41MeEVYLBGYV49csnyx42tdgb0jpLqEq60aYYnXE5wf9nXxVWz/pub</p></div>
