Chroma Starlight Posted July 10, 2021 Author Share Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) Rebuilding an Acanthus Column in Delphi Quote Jean-Luc Martinez, an archaeologist with the Musée du Louvre, asked the INSIGHT team to help document and reconstruct a fragmentary column from the Temple of Apollo at Delphi, Greece. The goal of the reconstruction was to validate Martinez' hypothesis that the Omphalos (a well-known sculpture meant to mark the 'center' of the Hellenic world) once rested atop the dancers' column. As the column is now in pieces, the INSIGHT team was faced with the monumental task of capturing dozens of individual fragments while maintaining exceptionally high detail in the resulting data. Each of the thousands of individual scans was required to align with all its neighbors to within single millimeter accuracy. ... (We) worked with Youda He of Geometry Systems to create a new technique for aligning point clouds.

I wonder how much of it survived the fire. Also reminds me of one of the creepiest albums I've heard...I think that gargoyle is on the other side... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
