#AGM 2016

43. What it takes to add interactive
3D experience to Europeana?

Europeana AGM, Riga, November 2016

44. • 3D model: more informative and richer experience than image
• Interactive 3D model: open/close, assemble/disassemble, …
not a predefined animation
• Why? Satisfies a broader range of research and education use,
consequently increases
artefact protection
Interactive 3D models

45. ~30 million images
~3 000 3D objects
mostly PDF 3D, no interaction
Adding interactive 3D experience:
• create interactive 3D models
• store
• transmit
• (optionally) protect IP rights
Europeana

46. • Create
• takes hours vs. seconds for an image
• running software (photogrammetry, rendering) on cloud
• involving students in a crowd work fashion
• Store
• requires ~100 MB vs ~100 kB
• if 30 million records were 3D objects => 3PB (single university
storage)
• Transmit
• client (low BW) vs server
(IP protection) rendering
Scalability

47. Visualization and interaction
• Sketchfab API + WebGL, Unity Engine, Blend4Web
• Interaction with Kinect, Leap Motion, Myo, …
• Group real-time collaboration
... all can be done with models on Europeana

48. Thank you for your attention!
