It's not exactly groundbreaking tech as other companies have done it before. But Microsoft is taking their own approach to mobile 3D scanning. The Microsoft Research team is testing out its new software called MobileFusion. It lets you take shots to create 3D images that you can later turn into 3D-printed objects or, as they suggest, augmented reality objects. With MobileFusion, you don't need to use an Internet connection for it to work. And it doesn't seem to be chained to Windows Phone either has the company is testing it out with an iPhone. The team hopes this app makes a general public release soon but there is not release date scheduled yet.
