Photos and X-rays will create 3D virtual mummies in Sweden
STOCKHOLM, Sweden,[url=http://www.leedpe.com/]christian louboutin sale[/url], July 1 () -- A Swedish museum says it plans to digitize its mummy collection in 3D using photos and X-ray scans to allow visitors to unwrap a real mummy in digital form.The permanent exhibition at the Medelhavsmuseet in Stockholm, allowing visitors to virtually explore what is inside a mummy's sarcophagus, is scheduled to open in the spring of 2014.Museum experts say they will scan six mummies, compiling data from photos and X-ray scans to create high-resolution 3D digital models in a process called reality capture technology."We aim to set a new standard for how museums work with 3D digitization and interactive visualization to make collections more accessible to other museums,[url=http://www.govtvault.com/]gucci belt men[/url], researchers and museum visitors,[url=http://www.myeduhelp.com/]christian louboutin outlet[/url]," Thomas Rydell of the Swedish Interactive Institute told the BBC.Museum visitors will be able to see details like carving marks on a sarcophagus as they "unwrap" a mummy by stripping away virtual layers of the wrapping, revealing artifacts buried with the body."The technology will enable our visitors to gain a deeper understanding of the men and women inside the mummy wrappings," said Elna Nord, producer of the exhibition. |
