Aim of the Workshop The aim of this international workshop is to better integrate the results of science into the society and to get feedback of the visitors regarding the 3D digitizing technology. This offers the opportunity to advance the public understanding of scientific results and aims and to inform the public and the experts in art history about methods und activites of the current research in computer science. Digitizing Artefacts Original (Image) The shape of this antique jug found in the Saar Region was measured by means of a 3D-scanner. Different views of the jug were combined into a 3-dimensional computer model, which presents the shape, color and the reflectance of the artefact. Steps of the Digitization       Participants of the Workshop The scientists of the ViHAP3D consortium want to present the first results of the project to the possible endusers, such as conservators and curators, teachers and researches in order to evaluate their familiarity with 3D models and their feelings towards this new technology. The relatively scarce familiarity with "Innovative Technology" found among Museum operators, their tendency to delegate the setting up of the digital presentations of their collections to external companies and - last but not least - the impossibility of offering to all of them significant advantages for their involvement was the motivation to disseminate information on the project and to invite people who are interested in this field to join this workshop. The participation of the workshop is free of charge Schedule 09.30-10.00 Registration 10.00-10.20 Opening of the workshop The goals and expected results of the ViHAP3D Prof. Dr. Hans-Peter Seidel, MPI Informatik, Germany The goals of the exhibition "Real and Virtual World in Dialogue" Dr. Ulrike Wendland, Staatliches Konservatoramt des Saarlandes, Germany 10.20-10.40 A 3D model to be explored: a precious help for restoration Prof. Dr. Roberto Scopigno, Consiglio Nazionale Delle Recherche (C.N.R.), Italy 10.40-11.00 A 3D model and the light: a difficult relationship Michael Goesele, MPI Informatik, Germany 11.00-11.20 Coffee Break 11.20-11.40 A 3D model to communicate a technological potentiality Prof. Dr. Pere Brunet, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Spain 11.40-13.00 A guided tour through the exhibition 13.00 -14.00 Lunch 14.00-14.30 Multimedia and communication inside a museum.
