New Idea

Ok so, PCL ( http://pointclouds.org/ ) has a port of Kinect Fusion nowadays.

If we can just compile this and run it on a computer with some good cpu and lotsa cuda cores (nvidia geforce8 or newer), we can just wave a kinect around and get awesome scans!1!!!!

Old Idea

Well, ehm.

I ordered some parts last night for this, as I want to play around with it (and they were cheap)

• http://dx.com/red-laser-module-focused-line-3-5v-4-5v-16mm-5mw-5928
• http://dx.com/28ybt-48-stepper-motor-with-uln2003-driver-dc-5v-126409

Idea; re-implement http://www.david-laserscanner.com/

Probably the cheap DX stepper I ordered doesn't have enough steps, so it will need some gears, but we'll see later

Also needed;

• Servo
• Bearings (?)
• Gears (?)
• Plates (backpanel, turntable)
