Inukshuk

Since we are located in Vancouver, BC - the home of the 2010 Winter Olympics, what better project to carry out than to model the iconic Inukshuk. Inukshuk are native Inuit statues made of large stacked rocks. Vancouver has a large Inukshuk on the shores of English Bay that many say was one of the inspirations for the games logo. See the Inukshuk Project page for more detail and animations.

Lion Statue

This lion statue is located in Vancouver's famous Stanley Park. It is one of four lions that surround a bridge over the Lions Gate Bridge causeway.

This project is an excellent example of using PhotoModeler Scanner's two abilities to model both complex organic shapes through scanning, and geometric shapes through wireframes, points and surfaces. The project was completed by Mark Savoy on the Eos staff.

Mask

This hand-carved replica of a native North American ceremonial mask was photographed with a consumer Fuji F10 digital camera and processed in PhotoModeler Scanner.

This animation of the mask shows the extracted surface with photo-textures extracted from the same project photos.

Petroglyph

This surface scan is of a hand-shaped petroglyph found on Hornby Island, BC, Canada. Two photographs with some coded targets placed on the ground were used to build the project for scanning.

This animation shows the shaded form of the resulting mesh from PhotoModeler Scanner's 3D Viewer - showing coded target 3D points as well. An exaggeration factor of 2.0 in the Z axis was applied to make the shallow carving stand out.

Bas Relief

This Scanner project of a bas relief statue found outside Science World in Vancouver, BC was done with 2 photos from a Fuji F10 digital camera.

This animation shows the point cloud form.
