3DMe, the only app of its kind, transforms users into a
one-of-a-kind 3D-printed collectible, like a super hero, a sports
star, or a favorite character from a movie. All it takes is a quick
face scan and 3DMe creates a customized figurine of their choice,
including licensed figurines from Ghostbusters, Star Trek, NBA and
more. Users can watch their personalized character come to life in
a fully animated virtual setting, directly purchase 3D printed
figurines, and share them on social media. Download the 3DMe app on

"This game-changing combination of Intel's hardware and 3DS'
software puts easy-to-use integrated 3D scanning and editing
capabilities in the hands of everyday computer users for the first
time," said Avi Reichental, President and CEO, 3DS. "These fun and
intuitive apps democratize blended reality and physical photography
for everyone, making the creation of personalized avatars, action
figures and poseable selfies accessible for everyone."
3DS' Sense 3D scanning app unleashes the power of physical
photography. Leveraging the power of the Intel RealSense 3D Camera,
anyone can capture 3D models of objects with ease. With simple
capture and editing tools, Sense generates 3D printable scans in as
little as 15 seconds. Fully integrated with the Cubify print app
for Android and iOS and Cubify.com, the Sense app uploads scans
directly for 3D printing, either at home or through the cloud.
3DMe designed with Intel RealSense technology can be experienced
as part of the interactive Intel Retail experiences in select
nationwide Best Buy and Microsoft stores this spring. 3DS is also
showcasing its flagship consumer 3D printer, Cube 3, printing live
