Photogrammetry is the conversion of a physical object to a 3D digital form which the user can interact. By photographing the object from multiple angles, a computer is able to use the photographs to reconstruct a high quality virtual model.
Our current R&D efforts are being but into introducing Volumetric Capture, which is the use of a camera array to capture moving object in 3D, where the user can interact with the video as if they are physically present in that space.
WHY CHOOSE 3D?
SPATIAL UNDERSTANDING
Facilitates spatial understanding of objects and systems challenging to achieve through images
SIMULATED ACCESS
Provides simulated hands-on access to fragile or rare artifacts through 3D models
INVESTIGATION
Provides multiple students unlimited time to study and investigate a specimen
THOROUGH EDUCATION
Provides an “up close & personal” view of a specimen with a large group of students at the same time.
