The system that I am working on at present (3-Tuple) will be able to 
vectorize a 2-D bitmap, and extrude it anyway you like! Can't wait to
finish it! I've been working on my 3-D Animation & Rendering system for
almost 2 years now! It is guaranteed to advance the technology, at least
as far as micros are concerned!
