<p>Shapify lets you 3D scan yourself using Microsoft Kinect, and then send away for a 3D-printed miniature model of yourself.</p><p>(Credit: Shapify.me)</p><p>If you have a current-gen Kinect, you could soon be the owner of your very own selfie statue. In concept, it's similar to Germany's Twinkind, which set up a photo booth for your portrait but Shapify.me's service is a little more DIY (and a little more lo-res).</p><p>Using Kinect for Windows or Kinect for Xbox 360, you can scan in your own image. Firstly, you need to download and install the Shapify.me app and the Microsoft Kinect SDK. Then you connect the Kinect to your computer and press the "capture" button to start scanning. This is when you need to get into position about one metre away from the Kinect, which should be at about chest height and strike a pose, turning slowly in a circle, stopping at 45-degree intervals for eight shots.</p><p><a href="http://www.cnet.com.au/shapify-creates-3d-printed-selfies-using-kinect-339346021.htm">Keep reading...</a></p>
