“…Cyberarchaeology crosses archaeology, computer science and engineering (Levy et al 2012) to simulate "potential past" in a 3D "cyber-environment" (Forte and Siliotti 1997b) affording innovative approaches and leading to new questions and knowledge as well as changing archaeological practice (Forte 2003(Forte , 2010(Forte , 2016bForte and Pietroni 2009;Jones and Levy 2018;Smith and Levy 2014). In regard to landscape archaeology, VR in archaeology has focused primarily on built environments for projects such as Rome Reborn (Dylla et al 2010), Digital Revival of Cham's Architecture (Guidi et al 2012), Depicting Çatalhöyükness (Pujol 2017), Ultraset 3D (http://patrimoni.gencat. cat/en/ullastret3D) and Funerals on the Rostra (Saldaña and Johanson 2013), or paleoenvironmental reconstructions with little to no built architecture (Spada et al 2017).…”

Archaeologists are employing a variety of digital tools to develop new methodological frameworks that combine computational and experiential approaches which is leading to new multisensory research. In this article, we explore vision, sound, and movement at the ancient Maya city of Copan from a multisensory and multiscalar perspective bridging concepts and approaches from different archaeological paradigms. Our methods and interpretations employ theory-inspired variables from proxemics and semiotics to develop a methodological framework that combines computation with sensory perception. Using GIS, 3D, and acoustic tools we create multisensory experiences in VR with spatial sound using an immersive headset (Oculus Rift) and touch controllers (for movement). The case study simulates the late eighth and early ninth-century landscape of the ancient Maya city of Copan to investigate the role of landscape in facilitate movement, send messages, influence social interaction, and structure cultural events. We perform two simulations to begin to study the impact of vegetation on viewsheds and soundsheds of a stela at ancient Copan. Our objectives are twofold: (1) design and test steps towards developing a GIS computational approach to analyse the impact of vegetation within urban agrarian landscapes on viewsheds and soundsheds and (2) explore cultural significance of Stela 12, and more generally the role of synesthetic experience in ancient Maya society using a multisensory approach that incorporates GIS and VR.

“…Nowadays, 3D scanning and photogrammetry techniques are very useful to build three-dimensional digital models in different fields such as engineering, where they are applied in the remodelling and maintenance of industrial plants [ 1 ] or band vehicle modelling [ 2 ]. In architecture, for the study of structures [ 3 ], creating models of buildings [ 4 ], or seismic studies [ 5 ]; in archaeology, to compare current and ancient landscapes [ 6 ], in reconstruction processes [ 7 ], and maritime archaeology [ 8 ]; or in medicine, diagnosis of pathologies [ 9 ], anatomical modelling [ 10 , 11 ], virtual reality [ 12 ] or odontology [ 13 ] among others applications.…”

This work is aimed at describing the design of a mechanical and programmable 3D capturing system to be used by either 3D scanner or DSLR camera through photogrammetry. Both methods are widely used in diverse areas, from engineering, architecture or archaeology, up to the field of medicine; but they also entail certain disadvantages, such as the high costs of certain equipment, such as scanners with some precision, and the need to resort to specialized operatives, among others. The purpose of this design is to create a robust, precise and cost-effective system that improves the limitations of the present equipment on the market, such as robotic arms or rotary tables. For this reason, a preliminary study has been conducted to analyse the needs of improvement, later, we have focused on the 3D design and prototyping. For its construction, there have been used the FDM additive technology and structural components that are easy to find in the market. With regards to electronic components, basic electronics and Arduino-based 3D printers firmware have been selected. For system testing, the capture equipment consists of a Spider Artec 3D Scanner and a Nikon 5100 SLR Camera. Finally, 3D models have been developed by comparing the 3D meshes obtained by the two methods, obtaining satisfactory results.

“…Thanks to this, it is possible, for example, to reconstruct the gothic vault of the chapel [10], and recreate medieval castles [11,12] in digital form, even with the use of open-source software [13]. This enables the ancient times [14] to be connected virtually with modern times.…”

The article concerns the method of architectural inventory of the historic, wooden church in Mnichów (southern Poland), built in the 18th century. During hundreds of years of operation, structural changes can be seen in it, as well as in objects located above mining operations. The article explains the principles of inventory and describes the applied method of laser scanning, starting from the design to the creation of a 3D solid model of the object, paying particular attention to the analysis based on the created point cloud. Thanks to them, the area and volumes of all rooms were determined, the verticality of columns supporting the church levels was assessed, the floor level and verticality of walls were determined, as well as the shape and level of the roof edges. Based on the research, it can be concluded that the church, as an example of a wooden religious monument, is in good condition. The detected deformations in this range do not have a destructive effect on the current state of the object, but it should be subjected to control measurements in a cyclical manner. The laser scanning method used allowed for a wide and accurate scope of the study of the geometry of the church structure, without the need to disorganize its equipment.
