Step 3Tools and Materials
Camera & mount
We're just taking three pictures and transferring them to the computer. So you could use anything from a webcam to a Polaroid and scanner, but you're best off with a standard digital camera.
Projector & mount
We're just projecting three frames, so you could use transparencies and an overhead projector, or even a slide projector, but you're best off with a digital projector you can feed with your computer. When projecting structured light patterns for capturing motion, the projector type is important (CCD vs DLP, color wheel frequency, etc.) but if we're just making a single scan it doesn't really matter.
ThreePhase decoder application
This can be downloaded from the structured-light Google Code project, and includes the patterns to be projected.
Processing
If you want to modify the decoder application, you'll need Processing. Processing is an "open source programming language and environment for people who want to program images, animation, and interactions." The decoder application is also using two external libraries that you will need to download and install: PeasyCam and ControlP5.
