 Hi, I'm Addie with The Verge at CES and I'm here with the Structure Sensor, a Kickstarter backed 3D scanner that can quickly create 3D models of objects. The Structure Sensor is a connect-like camera that fits on the back of the iPad and augments the color camera on the iPad to create and texture 3D models. One of the most basic uses of the Structure Sensor is to create scans of solid objects. So here's a bust of Julius Caesar that we can walk around with the camera, creating a mesh as we go. The result is a 3D model that you could send to a video game or a 3D printer. You could also theoretically use it for a virtual pet or any other kind of augmented reality game by scanning an area and then creating a 3D model of it. That means it's going to semi-realistically bounce off of actual objects in the world. You can also scan an entire room with accurate measurements. So this means you can either just tell how big the room is or you could create a model and then use it for something like a furniture catalog. So once this mesh is done, it's going to create a full texture and color map. So just from doing a quick scan, I've got a rough model of the room that I can either see as a panorama or as a 3D object. These are all demos because the real idea is that there's going to be a Structure SDK that can be used either with other people's cameras or by developers to create games or software. The first units shipped out in December after the Kickstarter ended in November, so we're going to be seeing some people playing around with this to see what it can do.
