There are two ways to scan in 3D models. The most effective way is with a laser scanner. The laser scanner I use(there are others) is the iSense 3D scanner. This is comparable as a stand a lone that hooks directly to the computer, or a version that connects directly to an iPad. Using the scanner you can slow walk around the model in a still environment and capture the person or item your scanning in 3D. That file can then be exported to a .STL file for use on a 3D printer.
