• Mesurements on the new model were coherent with photogrammetry: the new model grown in height of few millimeters

• By comparing the two models other lateral unexpected distortions became evident

L E S S O N L E A R N E D

• the usual approach for creating 3D models from small range images may involve a loss of metric accuracy even when the single images are highly accurate

• A sensor fusion between the two methods allowed to overcome the alignment problems

• As a general criteria 3D scanning should always be coupled to a complementary measurement method at least for checking global accuracy

• High resolution dimensional monitoring appears to be extremely useful for applications in wood restoration, specially when it is the support of a delicate painting

• However, due to the natural deformations of wood, the possibility of repeating the same monitoring in different times seems a key feature for gaining the information needed by restorators

• Mostly local to the camera

• Range maps have to be aligned by means of semi-automatic procedures (ICP)

• Range maps have to be redundant in order to make ICP work

FM laser radar

• All 3D data are directly re-oriented in a global reference system thanks to special targets over the scene (metallic spheres)

Approach #2: search of recurring elements and procedural modeling of a class of buildings

(object oriented)

P R O C E D U R A L M O D E L I N G

• Sofware used: Side Effects Houdini

• General purpose procedural modeling package

• Every item is considered as a flow of data and can be manipulated through a network of operators

• Users can make their own custom operators and custom “prototypes” (called digital assets)

H O U D I N I S C R E E N S H O T

B E N E F I T S O F T H I S A P P R O A C H

• Models are made up of reusable parametric modules (e.g. a column asset can be used in every object that contains a column)

• Updating the model became very easy because only the asset needs to be modified and all the instances are updated accordingly

• For example, to update the temple models, add a texture or a new parameter, user needs to modify the prototype only and the changes will be reflected in every existing temple

• It is possible to have different versions of the model, switching them automatically (e.g. different levels of detail based on camera distance)

• Object parameters can be controlled manually, by algorithms, by data sources (database) or even by image maps

W O R K F L O W

• Definition of the object parameters (analysis)

• Making a parametric model of the object

• Turning it into a Digital Asset (prototype) with its own custom interface

• Placing instances of the prototype on the 3D model of the “plastico” (manually or driven by a rule)

Such 3D model, once integrated by Bernard Frischer’s group with the various high-detail models of monumental

buildings (Forum, Coliseum, Circus Maximum, etc.), became the model known as Rome Reborn 1.0

It was also the starting point of the following fully procedural versions of RR, based on CityEngine:

• Laser Radar technology can solve the difficult task of acquiring large artifacts with small details

• The acquired data is always valuable but sometimes it is visually not sufficient for virtual reality

• In that case the right post-processing approach may change dramatically the time needed for completing the model

• In order to solve complex problems you have to go deeply into them. Many of the CH models shown could not be feasible if electronic engineering, informatics, archaeology, statistics, architecture, geomatics, computer graphics and metrology would not have interacted positively. The keyword is interdisciplinarity intended as action giving a result larger than the sum of the single disciplinar contributions

• The 3D model is important but often it is not enough. In many case it is just a (fundamental) starting point for a documentation activity that necessarily involves an enrichment of such models, both geometric (3D semantics), visual (computer graphics) and informative (metadata & ontologies)

• Similarly the 3D model can be used for communication purposes where the main issues are related with both local and remote 3D visualization (including virtual reality and augmented reality)

• The technologies seen show that many of those models required months to be created. Although any experimentation is important it is clear that the future of 3D documentation can’t be that. It has to be quick! Only in this way it will be possible to handle problems of massive 3D digitization. Image based modeling integrated with laser scanning and smart 3D post processing techniques seems nowadays the most promising way

• The quality of what your 3D data indicates what you can do with them. The traceability of the whole 3D acquisition pipeline (sensor, process, 3D model) is fundamental for a scientific use of 3D

• The same concept can be extended to any 3D modeling activity in CH, including reconstructive modeling of something not anymore existing (philological traceability), obtained through a wise use of metadata documenting the process and the sources for generating the 3D model
