Jeff is not only one of the most knowledgeable people I’ve met when it comes to 3D Scanning, he is also remarkably generous with this knowledge. His hunger to push beyond the assumed limits of data is inspiring. The content of his courses are deeply valuable, hard-won knowledge being shared outside of the typical closed backrooms of the High-Fidelity scanning world. I’ve been fortunate enough to work with Jeff for the past 4 years on a variety of unique and challenging projects. During this time I’ve had the privilege to peek behind the curtains to see what he can do, even with just open-source tools at his disposal. If you need to step up your skills to the next level, working with Jeff and utilizing his course is a no-brainer.
