Item Recreating Past and Present: An Exceptional Student-Created Virtual Heritage Experience(The Eurographics Association, 2020) Anderson, Eike Falk; Sloan, Susan; Romero, Mario and Sousa Santos, BeatriceWe present an outstanding undergraduate student project in the form of a virtual heritage experience, created by a multidisciplinary group of six 4th semester undergraduate students from a range of computer graphics related programmes of study, ranging from 3D art and design to graphics software development. The "Exercise Smash" application allows participants to take part in a 1944 military exercise that was held in preparation of the D-Day landings in Normandy, during which several amphibious tanks sank, and then to dive down to the tank wrecks on the modern-day seafloor. The virtual heritage experience was presented during a public event at a military history museum and has also been demonstrated at an archaeology conference, being well-received in both cases.Item Streamlining Photogrammetry Reconstructions of Bone Fragments for Bioarchaeological Analysis, Conservation, and Public Engagement(The Eurographics Association, 2020) Redford, Adam; Mikulski, Richard; Anderson, Eike Falk; Ritschel, Tobias and Eilertsen, GabrielWe present a streamlined workflow for the 3D reconstruction of skeletal fragments, suitable for bioarchaeological analysis as well as public engagement and based on practices and applications from the feature film visual effects industry. Using a lowcost single-camera photogrammetry rig for close range photogrammetry and processing the results using standard 3D asset creation software from the visual effects industry, the resulting 3D models achieve a resolution that is sufficient for the clear representation of bone elements and any gross changes affecting them, such as severe trauma.
