The related papers link from the Caltech 3D photography course is very useful.

The Turing Institute, is a Scotish company that is marketing a digital geometry camera.

The C3D is the geometry camera produced at the Turing Institute.

The 3-D links contains links (circa 1996) to various 3D sites (analog/digital/commercial/etc.).

The publications page is here. It is associated with the University of Glasgow & Faraday Partnerships.

Vic was designed with a flexible and extensible architecture to support heterogeneous environments and configurations. For example, in high bandwidth settings, multi-megabit full-motion JPEG streams can be sourced using hardware assisted compression, while in low bandwidth environments like the Internet, aggressive low bit-rate coding can be carried out in software. )
