Microsoft Research project "SemanticPaint" lets you scan objects, or whole rooms, in 3D using a Kinect and then separate and define individual objects in the scene. The software is available for free on GitHub, but it requires an Xbox One controller to work. This kind of accurate visualization of the world bodes great possibilities for things like self-driving cars and robots.

The system then separates the touched object from the surfaces while creating a "class" for each.
