I have an unused Kinect laying around from a dead 360. I swear I had seen something somewhere about using it as a 3D scanner. I did some digging and I see some stuff put out by Microsoft in their SDK as well as a couple pay apps on the net.

Just curious if anyone has tried using it on a PC and what sorts of results they had? Worth my time in trying to make it go for a source for 3D prints?

I recently had a barbee scanned for me and the detail is great. The kids have a bunch of figures for their Infiniti pad (xbox). Was curious if those could be scanned and printed as novelties for them. Or even scanning the kids themselves. It would be cool to scan them now and then every couple years as they grow and mature. I think it might make a cool thing to have for them in the future.
