The software used to convert the photos into 3D digital models are: Autodesk®123D™ Catch, Autodesk® ReCap™ Photo and the point clouds are processed using Autodesk® ReCap™ Photo and Meshlab.
Most of the models have been captured using photometry and an SLR camera mounted on a tripod. By allowing members to share their 3D printed creations, we hope to aid teachers, students and enthusiasts to exchange ideas and to be inspired to think about our tenuous place on the planet. Through digitizing otherwise inaccessible discoveries, African Fossils is dedicated to creating a growing repository of 3D models of significant fossils and artifacts, thus making them freely accessible to all. Contact us at if you have any questions.Īfrican Fossils seeks to increase public knowledge about prehistory by harnessing modern technology. We are working to transition these models to a new visualization tool and appreciate your patience. You may have noticed that some of our 3D digital models are currently unavailable for web viewing.
