Students at Waitotara got to see their classmate Willem Haket come to life in 3D on an iPad screen as Mr Priebe walked around him to capture the image.
The 3D printer had run out of printing medium but there were examples of 3D models, including a small bust of Ms Reed printed from her 3D image.
"The printer takes a long time to produce the images but once you have captured them you can do other things like put them into a game or an animated video," said Mr Priebe.
Ms Reed said visits to Wanganui schools had been enjoyable and a good learning experience for her as well.
"We visited TKKM o Te Atihaunui-A-Paparangi kura and they specifically asked us to demonstrate how the technologies could have been used to help people after the floods here - I was really impressed with that."
Funded by Noel Leeming, the community initiative offers technology learning to New Zealand's most remote and least advantaged communities.
The initiative's focal point is a high-tech vehicle that will travel throughout New Zealand over the next two years, letting students, parents and teachers, senior citizens and community groups experience first-hand some of the world's latest technology and learn how technology can enrich lives.
If there is no classroom space to work in, there is no problem because the mobile centre is kitted out with the latest technology and includes booths and pods that allow participants to listen and learn, plus an activity area to create digital content and experiment using devices like cameras and tablets.
Ms Reed and Mr Priebe aim to reach more than 100,000 New Zealanders in 160 communities as they travel around New Zealand over a two-year period.
