I would like to create a 3D database (files readable in AutoCad or 3DsMax) of an important collection of antic statues of the museum i work in.
But i don't know what tools / equipement i need, and how much it cost. Help me please, i need it.
Answer
3D scanners are available including smaller scale with finer detail that would require moving the pieces to the scanner and larger scale where laser beams scan from semiportable devices that can be taken to the statues.
I would expect the former to cost $500 to $1000 and the latter to range upward from there.
The problem is that costs will vary by your location and the services available locally. An area with a number of firms making 3D scans for parts reproduction, etc. will have better opportunities than one in the boondocks.
This search for "3D scanning Dallas" produces about as many prime choices as I expected

with prices from a miniature USB item under $90 to $9000 hardware and many services - I expect that there will be some distortion of what I saw as Google tries to force items from your area into the search, but Dallas should provide a sample and you can check out both your immediate area and the nearest big city if you are not in one.

Why dont airports use dogs instead of those 3d body scanners?

Dogs could detect everything those scanners do and more. Why not make them standard at every airport gate? My own theory is that you cant make a lot of money from dogs so there's no lobbyists advocating for dogs. You can make money off of those scanners ($150,000 a machine?). Is our security being subverted by washington lobbyists?
Answer
If each team had several dogs all trained in detecting different substances, the handlers could simply walk the dogs along the line of waiting passengers and remove anyone the dogs "hit" on. Forget technology, let nature expose them. I agree. Dogs not scanners.
