Je ne sais pas à quoi ça peut servir de le mettre sur un objet grand public comme un #ipad (ni même vraiment à quoi ça va servir tout court), mais (malgré de gros décalages) on arrive à des résultats assez impressionnants

The iPad-mounted Structure Sensor 3D scanner turns your world into a video game | The Verge

❝Augmented reality has never been nearly as cool as its name suggests. Even when it isn’t gimmicky, it’s virtually useless, in large part because your mobile camera’s version of “reality” is short one dimension. Scanning and computer vision company Occipital, however, wants to add real depth to your tablet’s vision with the Structure Sensor, a Kickstarter- backed product that shipped to backers late last year. The $349 Structure Sensor is a Kinect-like camera that fits on the back of an iPad or, with some hacking, any other device. With the bracket on, your tablet doesn’t just see objects, it can figure out how far away they are, doing anything from turning an object into a 3D model to measuring the distance of a room.
Occipital’s creators aren’t in the business of making games or augmented reality apps. They’re not really even in the business of camera hardware, though that’s the product they’re selling. Their hope is that the bundled Structure SDK will become an industry standard for camera makers and developers alike. Today, though, they showed us a few of the ideas they have in mind, including one of the simplest uses of the camera: 3D scanning."
