You can also convert 2D images to STL files that convert shades of gray in the image to different thicknesses in a 3D print of the image.  When lit from behind it then looks a lot like the photo you started with even though the front surface is smooth and featureless.  Try this : http://www.embossify.com/  or this: http://formlabs.com/en/company/blog/201 … lithoform/

I would like to see a means of producing a 3D model from video.  If the subject is captured at different angles in the video it might be possible to construct a 3D model using a technique similar to 123D Catch.

Have a look around and read some of the stuff here and I'm sure you'll get the hang of it.

Please let me know how to convert it.
