I suspect this may already exist, but I'd
like to see an inexpensive camera that
combines elements of a little laser tape-
measure or sonic tape-measure, and a
VR-style camera. It would take a picture
of a room, and, using a dedicated chip,
turn the flooring into a floor, the walls
into
VR walls, etc, then store the whole file in
one of the popular FPS formats. This
would be a useful thing not only for
gamers but also for movie makers and
VR apps generally. Not sure what it
would look like, but the lens would
probably be on the outside and
everything else would be on the inside.

I've had this idea before, and I think it could be done. A digital video camera, with some sort of sonar device attached. Take images and sonograms every yeah seconds, and take it home to a computer who uses this to rebuild whereever you visited. |

Would take a while to complie, natch. I believe it already exists for faces. |

And imagine using something like this to change your office, school, local park, &c., into a FPS map! |

CSI already incorporates something exactly like this for playing out scenarios,bullet trajectories,stuff like that |
