Here’s milkscanner, a 3D scanner that gets each slice of the 3D scan with a spoon drop of milk!

The basic idea is this: you place an object in a container, incrementally fill the container with milk, and take a photo after each tiny fill increment. The Milkscanner software mattes out the white part of the images, resulting
