HP Releases A Faux 3D Scanner For The Masses

Screen Shot 2011-09-09 at 12.21.51 PMFirst off, this isn't what you're thinking: this scanner doesn't actually allow you to scan objects in 3D but it allows you to scan physical objects. Think of it as a larger camera. That said, the HP TopShot scanner is clearly a bold move for the beleaguered HP. The $399 MFP prints, copies, and scans and has a special arm that swings up to scan 3D objects. For example, you could place a model on it and "scan" it (really "take a picture of it") from different angles.
