I had a Fit3D total body scan done at a local clinic when starting a weight loss program. I was surprised by the detail level for something that cost me $5/scan. I had to switch to wearing bicycle shorts during the scans because the first time I wore just underwear and the result produced an inappropriate amount of detail in that area. My plan is to 3D print my "before" body and display it in my exercise area to motivate me. Might have to make a pair of shorts for it to wear or edit out those details in the obj file.
That's a pretty interesting idea. Can't see any reason why it wouldn't work. I'm only looking to lose 50 lbs so it probably wouldn't even need any additional rafting.
Would be pretty easy to cut and join the models in blender for a single print. You could even get creative with the cut too, instead of a sagittal cut you could do multiple horizontal bands or a helix...
It'd be great to see quality level similar to the Obama 3D scan available to consumers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpMOe7O88cY
