    • Digitising Ivory Artefacts at the National History Museum in Brazil 

      Marroquim, Ricardo; Sá, Asla Medeiros e; Echavarria, Karina Rodriguez; Balbio, Vitor; Zamorano, Rafael (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      The advantages of digitisation technologies, such as 3D scanning, photogrammetry and 3D modelling, for the documentation and dissemination of cultural heritage artefacts is well understood by researchers. Nevertheless, ...

    • The Fabricated Diorama: Tactile Relief and Context-aware Technology for Visually Impaired Audiences 

      Samaroudi, Myrsini; Echavarria, Karina Rodriguez; Song, Ran; Evans, Roger (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      The recent popularity of digital fabrication has stimulated cultural heritage professionals to utilise such technologies for a variety of processes, including the creation of digitally fabricated handling objects. The ...

    • CHER-ish: A Sketch- and Image-based System for 3D Representation and Documentation of Cultural Heritage Sites 

      Rudakova, Victoria; Lin, Nathan; Trayan, Natallia; Sezgin, Tevfik Metin; Dorsey, Julie; Rushmeier, Holly (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      We present a work-in-progress report on a sketch- and image-based software called ''CHER-ish'' designed to help make sense of the cultural heritage data associated with sites within 3D space. The software is based on the ...

    • Educational Virtual Reality Visualisations of Heritage Sites 

      John, David; Shaw, Lawrence; Cheetham, Paul; Manley, Harry; Stone, Aaron A.; Blakeburn, Michaela; Gosling, Karl (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      This paper discusses the use of games engines to create virtual heritage applications. The use of 3D software for cultural or heritage applications is discussed with reference to the capabilities and potential of games ...

    • Visual Computing for Archaeological Artifacts with Integral Invariant Filters in 3D 

      Mara, Hubert; Krömker, Susanne (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      3D-artifacts from ancient civilizations contain many different kinds of information in form of forensic trace evidence, e.g., tool marks from styli or fingerprints on wax sealings. These very fine structures are increasingly ...

    • Towards Semi-Automatic Scaling Detection on Flat Stones 

      Muñoz-Pandiella, Imanol; Akoglu, Kiraz; Bosch, Carles; Rushmeier, Holly (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      In Cultural Heritage projects, it is very important to identify and track weathering effects on monuments in order to design and test conservation strategies. Currently, this mapping is manual work performed by experts ...

    • From Paper to Web: Automatic Generation of a Web-Accessible 3D Repository of Pottery Types 

      Dellepiane, Matteo; Callieri, Marco; Banterle, Francesco; Arenga, Domenico; Zallocco, Massimo; Scopigno, Roberto (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      3D web repositories are a hot topic for the research community in general. In the Cultural Heritage (CH) context, 3D repositories pose a difficult challenge due to the complexity and variability of models and to the need ...

    • OpenREC: A Framework for 3D Reconstruction of Models from Photographs 

      Arroyo, Germán; Martín, Domingo (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      In this paper we introduce openREC to the scientific community, an extendable framework for reconstruction of 3D models from photographs. This system provides a framework designed for archaeologist, art restorers, architects, ...

    • Projecting our Past to the Future - Challenges and Results: The Case of Asinou church

      In this paper, we present some of the novel results of the Marie Curie Initial Training Network for Digital Cultural Heritage (ITN-DCH) project, describing briefly the work done focusing on the project's first case study: ...

    • Streamlining the Preparation of Scanned 3D Artifacts to Support Digital Analysis and Processing: the GRAVITATE Case Study 

      Mortara, Michela; Pizzi, Corrado; Spagnuolo, Michela (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      Digitally acquired 3D models of cultural assets are not always ready for further processing. Sometimes, the digital surface presents geometric or topological defects that may hinder downstream surface analysis algorithms. ...
