That is simply false. We have interactive games based on cheap costumer 3d scanners. [1] We have 3d scanners in our pockets. [2] We have 3d scanners which can scan millions of points per second from the environment for hundreds of meters of distance. [3]
But yeah, if we ignore all the things which changed, then it turns out everything is "still unchanged".

- SnooSux 4y agoI assumed the OP was talking more about the math, which is also not true. The method mentioned in the article only takes into account the silhouette of the target. In my experience, that's where a lot of the information comes from, but to get that fine detail most contemporary methods incorporate a lot of information about the target itself like keypoints and lighting interactions.
