Athletes in the Hangzhou Asian Games Village are now able to experience the marvels of the metaverse firsthand, thanks to the newly unveiled 3D photography booth, local media reported on Sept 25.

This state-of-the-art facility, known as the "Metaverse 3D Photobooth," has quickly become a hot spot for athletes, offering rapid 360-degree body scans and personalized 3D figurine printing.

As the brainchild of Zhejiang Microtech Co, the booth utilizes cutting-edge portrait capture technology.

Athletes can now have their high-resolution 3D images taken in just one second. These intricate scans serve as the basis for crafting lifelike figurines through advanced AI modeling techniques.

To support and celebrate the victorious athletes, the booth offers complimentary 3D portrait capture and printing services for gold medalists.

Since its grand opening, the booth has attracted a steady stream of athletes eager to experience the fusion of sports and technology.
