A company called Shapify is, through the magic of Kinect and 3D printing, allowing Microsoft’s peripheral to serve as your gateway to tiny narcissistic action figures.
You’ll need a Kinect, a PC and Shapify’s software. With all that, the camera can take a complete 3D image of you – in a pose, if necessary – then have that printed out as a cute wee figure.
Considering the technology used – this is the old Kinect, not the Xbox One’s supposedly improved model – the results are pretty good!
