I noticed this (free, at least at the moment) photo-based 3D scanner from Autodesk:

I wonder if it's accurate enough to use for part creation, and, if so, if there's any way to get from its file format into LDraw format.

I'll have a closer look on this! On the main page, they say the mesh can be exorted to .obj, so there should be no problem to convert to LDraw.
