A system may almost instantly capturing high-resolution geometry and reflectance data of a portion of a human subject. The system may include multiple cameras, each oriented to controllably capture an image of the portion of the human subject from a different location in space; multiple lights, each oriented to controllably illuminate the portion of the human subject from a location in space significantly different than the location in space of the other lights; and a controller. The controller may divide the cameras into subgroups with each subgroup of cameras containing at least one camera and with each camera belonging to only one of the subgroups; cause each subgroup of cameras to sequentially capture a single image of the portion of the human subject; and cause at least one of the lights to light while each subgroup of cameras captures a single image of the portion of the human subject. The system may include an image processing system that generates the high resolution geometry and reflectance data based on only one image from each camera.
