A scanning system and method for constructing a three-dimensional model of an object, the scanning system comprising: a scanning device ( 2 ) and a scanning template member ( 4 ). The scanning device ( 2 ) has an emitter ( 20 ) for projecting light and a sensor ( 22 ) for capturing images, the emitter and the sensor being, in use, in a fixed position relative to each other. The scanning to template member ( 4 ) has a known two-dimensional template ( 42 ). Processing means generates data to enable construction of a three-dimensional model of an object ( 8 ) placed between the scanning device ( 2 ) and the scanning template ( 42 ), the processing means being arranged, when in use, to generate information about the object ( 8 ) relative to the scanning template ( 42 ), this information being generated from the same image onto which the projected light is projected by the emitter. Both measurements are made relative to the same reference plane.
