RE: Real Face Scanning & STAR WARS?
A voice in my head is telling me that NextEngine was originally for gaming? I've had a quick look on the web and cannot (So far) find anything to substantiate that claim though. :-)
I wouldn't think so. At least not on a large scale. No question that Studios have used it for games. However, games don't require anywhere near the high definition that this scanner provides. Our studio has used the scanner to make elements for games as well, simply because this was the scanner that we had on hand. The original use our studio had for the scanner was in creating photo-realistic digital replicas for use in film effects. When I first found this scanner, the impression I had from next engine was that it was largely being used in film, historical artifact archiving and reverse engineering. You could be right though. That just wasn't my understanding.
