Papyrus RTI

3D ModelNoAI

Looking into using reflectance transformation (RTI) data to demonstrate surface details on a flat plane - what do you think?

The example data - “Ancient Papyrus from the Bancroft Library” - used here is from Cultural Heritage Imaging (CHI).

The diffuse and normal map were exported from CHI’s RTIViewer: https://culturalheritageimaging.org/What_We_Offer/Downloads/View/

A ‘best guess’ ambient occlusion map was generated using Materialize by Bounding Box Software: http://boundingboxsoftware.com/materialize/
