PROJECT “TOWARDS THE VIRTUAL MUSEUM” – EXPLORING TOOLS AND METHODS FOR 3D DIGITALIZATION AND VISUALIZATION

Sa？etak A 3-year pilot project “Towards the Virtual Museum – 3D-digitalization of A-category objects selected from the collection of Archaeological Museum in Zagreb” has a primary objective to enhance the accessibility of museum collection to a bigger audience, both scientific and the general public. The project goal is to research existing tools and methods for 3D digitalization and visualization of archaeological objects different in size and material. Digital models achieved by 3D scanning techniques will be equally used for virtual reconstruction, making replicas, scientific analysis and detailed damage recordings on ob- jects and monuments
