Multi-modal Digitalization of Cultural Heritage Artifacts
(The Eurographics Association, 2014) Stanco, Filippo; Gallo, Giovanni; Cannata, Giovanna; Lombardo, Marcella; Andrea Giachetti
Objects made of different media, paintings, marbles, clay and wooden objects, textiles etc., form the historical collections of most of the middle to medium sized Museums in Italy. This variety poses difficult challenges to these institutions when they face the digitalization of part of their patrimony. This paper provides a report of an ongoing inter-disciplinary experimental program for a digitalization effort to be carried out by one of such institution. Through the discussion of the digitalization of different objects obtained with the use and integration of different techniques we illustrate some of the lessons learned in transferring to the final intended users the graphical tools and the know-how previously acquired in a research laboratory.
