2. Why 3D scan stuff?
better than photos for 3D objects
engage new audiences
engage old audience in new ways
scope for multiple uses
add to a collection without adding
stuff to your museums storage
get stuff out of storage
replace damaged parts
3. Some types of scanning:
Laser Triangulation Scanning
Structured Light Scanning
Laser Pulse-based 3D Scanning
Time-of-flight Scanning
X-ray computed tomography (CT scan)
Mechanical Contact Scanning
blah blah blah
5. What can you scan?
statues, stuffed animals, boats, coins, tablets,
jugs, bowls, medals, 鍖gurines, bugs, amulets,
