1. A three dimensional digital scanner comprising: multiple view detector means responsive to a broad spectrum of visible light, said multiple view detector means being operative to develop a plurality of images of a three dimensional object to be scanned, said plurality of images being taken from a plurality of relative angles with respect to said object, said plurality of images depicting a plurality of surface portions of said object to be scanned; and a digital processor including a computational unit, said digital processor being coupled to said detector means, said digital processor being responsive to said plurality of images and operative to develop with said computational unit 3-D coordinate positions and related image information of said plurality of surface portions of said object; whereby a three dimensional image of said object to be scanned can be developed by said digital processor that includes both shape and surface image.
