3d palooza and Autodesk

Autodesk 100 million dollars through project Spark Investment Fund the money's out there let's innovate. That was a shot in the arm that caught my eye. It distracted me from the second part of the 3d palooza which was live streaming and moved from Faro which was attempting to pioneer laser scanning with applications in architecture and engineering and surveying. Next they moved on to a company using an Nvidia shield as a hand held scanner. It can be found at dotproduct3d.com the scans take less than a minute the files are also small at 5 or 6 mb and the equipment itself is very portable. The price point is set at 5k . This create an application that I am very invested in as far as being a portable solution for scanning potholes.  There was another company at kubusa.com and should specialize in re-organizing industrial floor plans.
