Greetings. My name is Lassi Kaukonen and I come from the former capital city of Finland called Turku. I am an old school gamer from the early 80\u2019s and my training in 3D has been self-taught. I have always been a very tech-savvy person and I have a pretty good knowledge of photography. I work in the hospital district of southwest Finland as a system specialist and currently I\u2019m working on a project that aims to ease people\u2019s navigation within the hospital and its surroundings via photogrammetry and other things. My passion for photogrammetry started about three years ago when I managed to scan things from my backyard and place them in a virtual environment that I had created in Unity. My desire to make better models grew stronger last year when I had the chance to create a virtual environment for psychiatric healthcare. The goal was to make a VR app to help people with performance anxiety.<\/p>\n
I stumbled upon this specific live orchid flower in IKEA. I was waiting for my wife and noticed a bunch of orchids on a stand. I remembered the countless hours that I had spent in my basement last summer and autumn trying to make models from leaves and decided to scan one of these beautiful and well-patterned flowers.<\/p>\n
