Scan-Xpress from our #HandsOnMetrology partner network takes us onto a yacht in the Australian port. They show how easy 3D scanning a transparant windshield is performed with just a few little tweaks.

Create colored and textured meshes of archaeological artefacts using mobile 3D scanning
3D scan technology is used for a wide range of applications in the archaeological environment, like archiving, preserving, reproduction and sharing – analogue and virtual. In all these areas, optical 3D scanning solutions make visible what the human eye can’t see.
Follow the process here to see how detailed a mesh can actually get by adding color and texture.

How to use portable 3D scanning for the restoration of architecture
Historic architecture is often seen as an important part of our cultural heritage. Preserving it for future generations is a vital task. One way to achieve this goal is through restoration. Restoration involves the process of returning a building to its original state by repairing or reconstructing damaged or missing parts. 3D scanning technology supports in this case with the collection of data necessary for the rework of hundreds years worth of history.
