Integration of close Range Photogrammetry and Structured Light Scanner for Cultural Heritage Documentation

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper proposes an integrated three-dimensional(3D) shape acquiring and digitizing method for cultural heritage documentation by combining industrial close range photogrammetry and structured light scan techniques. The operation principle is introduced, the process of raw data acquisition and data post-processing are presented . A 2.5m high ancient Buddha sculpture of over 1500 years old located in Qingyang, China was measured and modeled to test the availability and reliability of the proposed system. Compare to conventional 3D digitizing methods, the proposed system can potentially meet a number of specific needs in the field of cultural heritage documentation, it is more flexible, low cost, less field work, capable of grabbing the 3D shape of large objects, meanwhile recording accurate detail information of local area, without physically contacting with object surface.
