How-to Session: The photogrammetric process, trials, and success of Charlie Parker’s Alto Saxophone Photogrammetry of Complex, Metallic, And Mirror Like Objects – The Process, Trials, and Success of Charlie Parker’s Alto SaxophoneJoseph Campbell, National Museum of African American History and Culture, Smithsonian, United States of America, Jamie Cope, Smithsonian Institution, USAIn collaboration with the Smithsonian Digitization Program Office (DPO), The National Museum of African American History and Culture’s (NMAAHC) Digitization Team would like to present the process, trials, and successes that resulted in the published 3D representation of Charlie Parker's Alto Saxophone.
The How-to session will provide insight into the workflow and processes for NMAAHC and DPO’s approach to such a complicated object. Including the digital imaging capture process, post-production, and the necessary 3D processing steps to produce the 3D model. And then a detailed look into the 3D editing, automated 3D derivative pipeline, and successful online publication using the Smithsonian’s Voyager online viewer.
