ABSTRACT:
A system and method for achieving constant magnification of a scanned three-dimensional item without the use of special optics or other specialized hardware. The system includes the dynamic computation of a camera parameter-dependent factor and applying that factor in real-time to the sampled signal resulting from the scan of the item.
