3D Models for Anthropology, Archaeozoology and Cultural Heritage

About

The class will experiment and get familiar with the acquisition of 3D data by practicing different techniques and supplies (blue light scan, laser scan, photogrammetry). Participants will be given a detailed overview of the general concept behind CT scanning, while dedicated datasets will be provided by the organisers. Raw models will be post-processed using Geomagic Design X to create a final product that can be straightforwardly used for display, morphometric analysis, and more elaborate analyses . CT Data will then be processed using Avizo Lite, a multipurpose tool designed for effectively discriminating between internal tissue proportions and for the creation of 3D models starting form computer tomographic datasets.

Course leader

Prof. Dr. Stefano Benazzi, Director of the Laboratory of Physical Anthropology and ancient DNA. Department of Cultural Heritage. University of Bologna

Target group

The courses are suitable for undergraduate/graduate students, PhD students, post-doctoral researchers, and professionals in the field of anthropology, archaeology, medicine and dentistry who are interested in developing fundamental skills in 3D data acquisition and post processing.

Course aim

The Summer School is designed to comply with the increasing demand for researchers with different and cross-disciplinary backgrounds who are able to manage virtual environments and to exploit the analytical potential of 3D data in a variety of scientific endeavours
