Description A 3D scan / render of a conch I found.  I wanted to scan it in before my dogs destroy it, which seem inevitable.  There are still some texturing defects to sort out, I'm going to take a couple more photographs later and re-parameterize the whole thing, that should take care of most of them.

More about the 3D scanner I hacked together from an xbox Kinect and a winbook Tablet below:
XBox Kinect based 3d Scanner

This image was rendered in Blender.

seems like it, at first i thought it was a concrete fake shell, but then i got to looking closer and it gets more like a shell on the inside, I think its just really caked on with seacrust like coral a little..  I'm touching up a version with spruced up detail, i'll post soon it looks nice.  Somehow my tablet renders faster than my laptop, but its batteries dont last long.  That mesh was scanned in, aligned and reconstructed, textured and rendered on a $50 tablet with almost entirely free software.
