Yean-Hoon Ong

Computer Science-based research assistant is undertaking a technology transfer process within which existing e-science, model visualisation and engineering metrology software tools are integrated to produce a computing environment that is appropriate for use by those working on the chosen objects from the arts and humanities components of the project.

Mona Hess

Museums and Collections-based research assistant has joined the project once the core software tools were at a stage where they can be tested with larger data sets. She is working with the Steering Group to organise the formative workshop, and all interim evaluation sessions with curators and conservators. She will organise the summative workshop contribute to the final report and publish in appropriate professional contexts. Mona's staff webpage is here.

Francesca Simon Millar

The AHRC Project student will explore the usage of the developed tools and undertake re-scanning and comparison of the objects on a periodic basis. This work will form the basis of a PhD investigation of the abilities of 3D colour scanning and e-science based data sharing and visualization for the museum community.
