Sensor-Equipped Backpack Generates 3D Maps
“A research team from the University of California, Berkeley has developed a special device that can scan its surroundings, capture images, and create an instant 3D representation of the area. The backpack contains a set of laser scanners, sensors and cameras that enable it to generate a texture map of the area around it and snap pictures in all directions, without any human intervention.”
