A system for visualizing an object to a remote user includes a digitization apparatus and a visualization apparatus. The digitization apparatus includes a sensor, a first processor, and a first communication interface. The sensor is configured to sense the object within a three-dimensional space region to obtain sensor data. The first processor is configured to determine volumetric data based upon the sensor data. The first communication interface is configured to transmit the volumetric data. The visualization apparatus includes a second communication interface, a second processor, and a display. The second communication interface is configured to receive the volumetric data. The second processor is configured to determine a three-dimensional representation of the object based upon the volumetric data. The display is configured to visualize the three-dimensional representation of the object to the remote user.
