“…A comprehensive natural history research library containing both 2D and 3D high-resolution X-ray computed tomographic images can be found at the University of Texas' Digital Morphology library project [5]. Other projects aimed at cultural heritage preservation are ViHAP3D Consortium [6], Columbia 3-D database of Medieval French Architecture [7] and the University of Pennsylvania Museum's project to create an underground image of a Pre-Inca city [8], [9].…”

In this paper we report our progress in building a system for the acquisition, analysis, and visualization of a collection of Native Californian baskets from the Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of Anthropology. Our project differs from existing cultural heritage applications in terms of its focus: to build tools and techniques for visualizing and studying a large number of related objects -in this case, baskets. We present our progress in the following system components: (i) laser-scanning of baskets, (ii) construction and processing of 3D models, and (iii) building virtual exhibits. We conclude the paper with our experiences and a summary of challenges we anticipate in building a completely automated system for processing and analyzing a large set of models -such as might be encountered when digitizing a large museum collection. Efficient retrieval and visualization of artifact collections are important to a number of communities, including anthropology researchers, Native American tribes, and the general public.

“…Once the scene has been extracted with reasonable accuracy, it can be passed as input to a more sophisticated, but also more computationally complex approach (e.g. [1], [3], [7]). The initial reconstruction of the scene is important in order to restrict the set of possible solutions and, thus, significantly reduce the computational time.…”

An efficient 3D reconstruction technique based on robust camera motion estimation and an improved version of the space-sweeping stereo reconstruction approach is presented. The proposed approach is focused on generation of usable and fully automatic reconstruction of wide-area scenes with the computational resources of a conventional PC. The aim is to use this technique to capture such scenes in 3D utilizing off-the-shelf equipment. Color information is finally added to the derived 3D model of the scene and the result can be converted to common 3D scene modeling formats. The 3D models are integrated with GIS technologies within a web-based virtual tour system.
