Concerned with the survival of unique Ukrainian architecture under constant russian bombing, ukrainian company Skeiron has launched a #SaveUkrainianHeritage project. They 3D scan culture monuments in order to preserve them, at least digitally, if the worst comes true. Asides from this utilitary use, the technology will also be helpful with monitoring the condition of the monuments over time.

While the beautiful church shown on the pictures - Saint Sophia Cathedral - has not yet been uploaded on their site, you can still have a virtual tour of the monuments they have already scanned here

And if you find this initiative worth supporting, please consider donating! (scroll to the bottom of the page for the relevant links in english)

an artist held a workshop at the grand theatre about 3d scanning and mocap

files will be sent to us later but for the time being here's one of the scans i made on my own phone! she said it was ok to post (app is 'Polycam')

the guy had a banger portable kinect rig that I'm going to try!! i also want to see how it does for live2d facial scanning!! since i cant afford an iphone and school is annoyed at me continuously snagging the webcam haha. also check out that bear..

The ship that never goes out of style--Rachel Treisman reports for NPR on the newly gathered imagery of Titanic, comprising 16 terabytes of scanned data and more:

The compilation was the result of Magellan, Ltd’s using a pair of DSVs to bracket the wreck and scan the site to capture the bow and stern section as well as the debris field.

"’What we've created is a highly accurate photorealistic 3D model of the wreck,’ 3D capture specialist Gerhard Seiffert says. ‘Previously footage has only allowed you to see one small area of the wreck at a time. This model will allow people to zoom out and to look at the entire thing for the first time ... This is the Titanic as no one had ever seen it before.’

Scientists spent six weeks capturing scans of the site, using technology that Magellan says it had been developing over the course of five years.

The expedition deployed two submersibles, named Romeo and Juliet, some 2.3 miles below the surface to map every millimeter of the wreck site.”

Have you ever wondered how Marsha makes such perfect fitting clothes? She uses new techniques and technology.

Sometimes, to be personal, she will use a measuring tape.

But for a normal client, she uses 3D scanning technology where she scans her modes in a scanning room. She then has experts take this scan and print a life size 3D model of her subject. Marsha uses this to make clothes and make sure all items are the exact size needed for image and comfort.

"Working with 3D Scanners & 3D Printers" workshop.

In this workshop I moulded a figure of a little dude laying in bed. Then we got to see how scanning the objects worked and then the process of sending the file to the 3D printer.

It was fascinating how an object you make can be 3D printed.

I just found out that it’s not normal to want a Grecian style bust or full body statue of yourself? Like I have a 3D printer and millimeter resolution scans of my face, chest, hands, etc that I’ve been taking with the goal of having a douchey self aggrandizing gallery of sculptures of myself and apparently it’s not normal to want that. At all

I'm heading down the line of exploring the symptoms of narcolepsy (a rare neurological disorder) for my "temporary" project. While narcolepsy is incurable, the symptoms are temporary - they come and go at different times.

I recreated a hypnogognic/hypnopompic hallucination here with Newplast. These hallucinations occur when falling asleep or while waking up - when the brain is both awake and asleep. They are extremely vivid and typically terrifying - the person is awake but living the nightmare.

Vertebrate 3D scan project opens collections to all - Technology Org

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/vertebrate-3d-scan-project-opens-collections-to-all-technology-org/

Vertebrate 3D scan project opens collections to all - Technology Org

A venture to digitize vertebrate collections in museums and make them freely available online for anyone to access has reached a milestone. The project has created 3D CT scans of some 13,000 specimens, representing more than half the genera of birds, amphibians, reptiles, fishes and mammals.

Lateral view of piranha (Serrasalmus iridopsis); collected in South America, by C. F. Hartt who died in 1878. The exact year of collection is not known, but was likely in the latter half of the 19th century.

The project, the oVert (openVertebrate) Thematic Collection Network, has just wrapped up a four-year, $2.5 million National Science Foundation grant, with the efforts to date described in a paper published in BioScience.

The Cornell Museum of Vertebrates, one of 18 institutions taking part in oVert, has uploaded roughly 500 CT scans of specimens from its collections. The museum holds approximately 1.3 million fish specimens, 27,000 reptiles and amphibians (collectively called herps), 57,000 birds and 23,000 mammal specimens.

“Not everyone is interested in making a trip to a museum, so by digitizing specimens, placing everything up on a website and making it free, anyone who wants to access it can without having to leave the house, which allows for much more equitable access,” said Casey Dillman, curator of fishes and herps at the Cornell Museum of Vertebrates in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, and a co-author of the Bioscience paper.

So far, users have included artists, high school and college students, educators and scientists.

oVert allows the natural history collections that are represented to be used in collaborative ways, such as in classrooms. The format has made it simpler to compare anatomies of different species.

“You can do so many things,” Dillman said. “You can compare specimens and look at the evolution of limbs, or wings in birds and bats, or gills in fishes.”

One limitation of the platform is that each specimen dataset can be 2 to 3 gigabytes in size, requiring users to have access to a computer with an expensive graphics processor to visualize the data. “Not everyone’s laptop can do that,” Dillman said.

The idea behind the grant was to CT scan one species of every genus of vertebrate, thereby building an online digital library of each organism’s appearance – its phenotype, or observable characteristics – with respect to the skeletal anatomy. While most of the images are skeletons, some were stained with a special solution to provide better contrast and visualize soft tissues, such as skin and muscles. The scanners use X-rays, which can be set as weak as a medical X-ray for soft tissue, or strong enough to view through rocks and fossils.

Museum catalog numbers included with each image link to the institutional database where the specimen originated. Database entries include when, where and by whom a specimen was collected.

In many ways, the oVert project is just getting started, Dillman said. “Thirteen thousand species isn’t even scratching the surface of vertebrate diversity,” he said.

For example, there are more than 36,000 species of fishes alone; one species per genus is a good start, he said, but it will take time and additional funds to represent the great depth of diversity.

“If you think about some of the fish lineages in North America, there might be 200 species within a genus,” he said.

Each round of funding will allow the teams to continue representing more genera and adding more species from each genus.

The grant’s principal investigator was David Blackburn, curator of herpetology at the Florida Museum of Natural History in Gainesville, Florida.
