Is there a practical method of “scanning” a large surface?

Adapt_Shop-Brady very interested in the scanner STL. The structure sensor doesn't quite say it can give you measurable 3D models. Can both the sensor and software yield a measurable model to reference at your fingertips, and thus useful?

We use ours to scan bead filled vacuum formed cushions that we then carve into foam on our bot.

We use these for children with disabilities (make seat and back cushions for their seating) and I can attest to the accuracy being REALLY good. Might not be perfect, but our kids can be pretty unique and the form/scan/carve/fit process works for us.
