Using Readily Available, Low-Cost Equipment to Capture 3D Scans of Objects and Surfaces

The Byrd Center will host an exciting seminar for researchers and educators across various disciplines interested in capturing 3D scans of objects and surfaces using low-cost, accessible technology. Traditionally, 3D scanning methods like LIDAR, photogrammetry, and structure from motion required special equipment and workflows. However, a new generation of tools now simplifies the process, eliminating the need for dedicated equipment and specialized teams.

Speakers:

• Jeremy Patterson from OSU's ACCAD
• Erick Walker from Columbus-based Physna

This seminar is applicable to disciplines of engineering, art, Earth sciences, geography, biology, architecture, and anthropology.

Available for Further Discussion Post-Seminar.
