3D laser etch

[watdahel]

Have you seen those at the mall where they take a picture of you and they have a laser than can etch the image into a crystal cube in 3D? Anyone know where I can get those online by using my 2D pictures?

Oh me!

me!

me me me!

I have an idea.

Go outside and go to the mall.

Actually the etching people came to our school two years ago and set up shop in one of our cafeterias. Everyone got unlimited free etchings in 2x2x3" blocks. It was one of the strangest promotional things we've had. I think I still have a couple lying around.

So you want them to extrapolate a 3d image from a 2d picture?

Doubtful.

Yeah the way they did it is that they had us sit still for about 15 seconds while they depth scanned our faces from the front and the sides. 2D pictures aren't gonna work.
