izardThis weekend I tried to get Yulia into VR. So I took a Realsense camera, and tried scanning her with 3D systems Sense. I failed, it almost worked but stalled so often! Then I installed ItSeez3D scanner. It was much better, but still you need a model to stand still for 2 minutes, and I guess it only works with Lenin mausoleum guards.
Still I got an obj; and tried composing a simple WebVR page. It worked, but it was awkward. Then I uploaded to sketchfab, and finally I was walking around virtual Yulia wearing my Oculus Rift. Model was not perfect but better than nothing. Verdict: it is not consumer ready yet, but very close. Once everyone will have a VR headset (most likely google style), ppl will routinely scan their 3D models and special moments in VR format.
