My colleague, Jamie Smith Hopkins, had a great one-on-one with Michael Raphael, the president of Direct Dimensions, a 3D imaging company based in Owings Mills.
The company has created digitized 3D images of everything from submarines to sculptures. At the moment, the firm is digitizing portions of the Maryland Shock Trauma Center.
It plans to spin off a company called ShapeShot, which will specialize in digitizing/3D-izing people's faces for use in online communications and video gaming.
