3D Scanning Workshop Day 1

Today was an exciting day at the lab! Some graduate students came in and we started trying out one of the scanners under the direction of Dr. Selden. We used the handheld Creaform, the same scanner that Rachel learned how to use yesterday.

Here is Dr. Selden teaching graduate student Ryan Breslawski to scan with the Creaform.

Rachel also used the NextEngine Desktop scanner to make a 3D model for her dissertation. It is a flute made from an eagle ulna.

 We also used a Dino-Lite, a portable digital microscope that takes high-resolution pictures, to photograph surfaces, cross sections, designs, and erosion of some of the vessels.


We are excited to continue the project tomorrow! We will be visiting the Daniel Family Cemetery to make some 3D models using photogrammetry, and then coming back to the lab to learn to use the rest of the scanners.
