Multispectral Photogrammetry

3D Model

Interactive configurator version

The Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek and Rigsters 3D are exploring the potential of merging photogrammetry and multispectral imaging (MSI). MSI is a widely employed photographic method of analysis in studies of ancient polychromy. The collaboration has resulted in the first 3D model including visible-induced infrared luminescence (VIL) imaging, illustrating the distribution of the ancient synthetic pigment Egyptian blue. The collaboration illustrates how the combination of methods developed in the fields of humanities, natural sciences, and digital industries can contribute to knowledge exchange as well as the development of new ways of disseminating scholarly research in museum exhibitions as well as online and for teaching purposes.
