"Digs the Teddy"

3D Model

Meet “Digs” (short for Digger). Digs is a teddy bear dressed in the uniform of a World War 1 Australian soldier - a digger. Digs is the much loved possession of a teacher at All Hallows’ School. He has visited the battlefields of the Western front with her. Digs was scanned using and iPad and lidar (via the Polycam3D app).

The scan was created by a year 9 History student. This was her first ever scan. The entire dirty scan was created in under 10 minutes. The model was cropped using Meshmixer.

The dirty scan of Digs has been used as an interactive learning resource in History classes via Thinglink
