How to create your own 3D image



Scientists have discovered how to make a 3D image with a webcam and sunshine. I recently found out from a magazine called New scientist. It is all down to how sunshine bounces off surfaces at different times of the year.  A scientist called Austin Abrams said “In some cases, we can capture the 3D structure of individual shingles on a rooftop.”
