1. A system usable to capture a three dimensional (3-D) image data, comprising:
- an image capture device that captures a plurality of portions of an image of an object, each captured portion of the image is based on a scan width of the image capture device;
a range finding device that obtains at least one range data value for each captured portion of the image as at least one corresponding position in each captured portions of the image; and
a base to which the image capture device and the range finding device are mounted, the base adapted to moves in increments based on the scan width of the image capture device.

Abstract
A three dimensional (3-D) image is generated from a plurality of portions of an image of an object, each captured portion of the image is based on a scan width of an image capture device. A range finding device obtains at least one range data value for each captured portion of the image as at least one corresponding position in each captured portions of the image, and a base to which the image capture device and the range finding device are mounted moves in increments based on the scan width of the image capture device.

9. A system usable to capture a three-dimensional (3-D) image data, comprising:
-
a base;
an image capture device mounted on base;
a range finding device mounted on the base such that a range data value read by the range finding device corresponds to a position in a captured image of the image capture device; and
a motor to rotate the base in angular step increment that is no larger than a scan width of the image capture device. - View Dependent Claims (10)

11. A method of generating a three-dimensional (3-D) image data comprising:
-
capturing a portion of an image of an object;
obtaining at least one range value for the captured portion of the image as at least one corresponding position in the captured portion of the image; and
assembling the captured portion of the image with a previously captured portion of the image of the object. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
