3D models of humans don’t pose a challenge to makers anymore; you simply need a 3D scanner to capture the person’s body and then create a 3D model. There are more and more mobile Apps offering 3D scan functions. Unlike humans, pets are more difficult to scan due to their constant moving.
Most scans that can be done at home require for the object to stand still and avoid any moves. If you want to get a 3D model of your pet, you have to refer to a professional provider, who can scan simultaneously with several cameras.
PetPrints3D is a Toronto based Company offering a solution for this kind of problem. Based on a few pictures of your pet they generate a 3D model ready for 3D printing. Prices for 3D printed pets range vom $ 250 to $ 1500 plus an extra $ 20 for shipping within US and Canada. For shipping outside you have to contact PetPrints3D support.
