Jing Posted November 4, 2014 Report Posted November 4, 2014 Hi, I'm a grad student working on this Relightable Dome Project from UCSC. Recently a few museums in China become interested in RTI capturing, but their desired applications seem to be very different from US museums. It would be vey helpful to learn more about what people's take on this. Basically, their concern is: they have a huge number of collections in museums, but they're not really keeping track of everything. Their collections might be replaced with fake ones at some point without them knowing. and only experts can tell the difference. So a potential application of RTI is to perform "fake identification" in this way: Keep an RTI capture of all collections, so that they can check the material details to see if anything goes wrong. Is this also a concern for US museums? Have you heard about any museums in US using RTI in this way? Really appreciate your help! I'm posting an example here to further illustrate this problem. For example you have two identical business cards, it would be difficult to tell the difference between them However, with RTI capture, you can see the details on paper fabrics, which can never be completely identical. - Jing ( jingliu@soe.ucsc.edu )

cdschroer Posted November 7, 2014 Report Posted November 7, 2014 Jing, Folks have certainly been interested in using RTI to "fingerprint" a subject. The idea is to have a great record of the surface such that if an object had been replaced, there would be a record with sufficient detail to tell them apart. Note that this is different than authenticating an art work, or determining if something is fake. The purpose here is to compare to a previously known example and determine if that example had been modified or replaced. I hope this helps to answer your question. Carla
rick Posted November 7, 2014 Report Posted November 7, 2014 Hi, Carla I’m so sorry. I wrote in Chinese just to hope to communicate with Jing more accurately. (not enough self-confidence about my English) There is no any infomations about SPAM or something offensive. Thank you for giving me a chance to correct my mistake. I wil post it in English.

Nice to meet you here. I could not see your image attachment. As an amateur, I am also interested in your question. I'm surprised there is so great and open source technology, for all those who assisted in this technology is very admirable. Glad to know from you that a few museums in China become interested in RTI capturing. I had introduced RTI to people around, but showed little reaction. But I still think this technology is a good thing, so I try to capture some normal small things for practicing. Go back to your concern application above, I feel down you can try. Edit #1 Must ensure that the two collections are relevant ,such as the same type, same age.And at least one is authentic. However, from a layman's point of view, I wish RTI more for recording and display, to narrow the distance between ordinary people and the different time remains through digitized form. Rick
