Turning artifacts into replicas

The CultArm3D autonomously turns the artifact into files depending on the desired use. In this case a button push digitized the mask, and we used the models to print out a replica with a 3D scanner.

 This is only one of the applications with the system as center piece. Uses range from creation of replicas to conservation, research or exposition; all in highest quality.

From 3D scan to replica

At the deep fakes exhibition questions are posed about the potency of digital replicas. 

The CultArm3D was built to offer repeatable high quality at the push of a button while ensuring object safety at all times

It combines intelligent view planning with color-faithful capture of arbitrary objects with challenging surface materials. High-resolution web-ready results are delivered in standardized 3D file formats.

poses crucial questions about the potency of digital replicas to absorb audiences in enduring emotional encounters with universal art treasures.
