Now this may be very important news.
Eora 3D’s scanner was born from the need for a precise laser scanner to verify the accuracy of a large parabolic dish used to focus sunlight on solar panels. The quest led Eora 3D co-founders Rahul Koduri, Richard Boers and Asfand Khan to design a $199 3D laser scanner powered by any model iPhone 5 or 6 – with support for Android and Windows Phone devices on the way.
Having completed development of the 3D scanner and lined up manufacturers in China, Eora 3D is launching a Kickstarter crowdfunding project in September to help cover manufacturing costs and is on the lookout for seed funding as well as Australian manufacturing partners. Eora 3D is a local finalist in the Seedstars World global start-up competition and is set to represent Australia at the finals in Geneva next March.
We all may need one of these soon.
