"Interview with Kyle McDonald, creator of ThreePhase" for MakerBot Industries

Description

Open-source structured-light 3D scanning software developed during Kyle McDonald’s MakerBot residency.

The project democratized DIY 3D scanning with a projector-camera setup, generating point clouds and experiments around scanning and printing workflows that later informed related MakerBot research.
