What Household Items Would You Scan When Equipped With A 3D Scanner?

A team of researchers equipped 70 operators with PrimeSense 3D scanners to create a huge set of 3D datasets.

The operators weren’t told what to scan so the database contains a wide spectrum of objects. The operators scanned more than 10.000 different objects. From the analysis of the 3D scans one thing is very clear – people love cars. As the following graph shows, 3D scans of cars rank first with more than double the scans of the second most scanned object, chairs.
