Oh this is great MKess007. That scanner is actually called a 3d scanner, there is also a 3d printer too! The only places that actually have them though are hospitals. But techncally you could model something on your computer and print out a plastic (exact) model of it. Its used for taking pictures of the spine on serious surgeries, so they can practice before they go in. Imagine that hey, you want to scan your exact head onto your computer and you could! hahaha.
