3D Model

Seden Society Puppet Theater Foundation is an important NGO that conserves mass puppet bodies, accessories and script documents. However, these relics are facing serious aging effect, such as surface cracking and peeling off, and the aging issue causes open demonstration and performance are not feasible. Besides, only few specific conservators can restore the relics, and the maintenance efficiency is very limited.

Therefore, in this project, a SOP of 3D scanning for the mass puppet bodies is established to accelerate the collection of the puppet bodies’ original mesh models, and enable the modeling staff to fix mesh flaws digitally. These STL models can be preserved in the on-line database systematically, and demonstrated in a free 3D viewpoint. Furthermore, several scanned puppet prototypes are duplicated in an enlarged scale by the 3D printer for better display function in the following exhibitions.
