AICCM, with generous support from the Gordon Darling Foundation and from the ADFAS Patricia Robertson Scholarship Fund, presents one four-day Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI) Workshop. The workshop, led by experts from Cultural Heritage Imaging (CHI) in San Francisco, will take place at the Grimwade Centre for Cultural Materials Conservation at the University of Melbourne from 28 June to 1 July. Unfortunately due to low interest in the Perth RTI workshop we have had to cancel this event but we are working on alternative options in Melbourne.
RTI is a computational photographic method that captures a subject’s surface shape and color and enables the interactive re-lighting of the subject from any direction. RTI also permits the mathematical enhancement of the subject’s surface shape and color attributes. The enhancement functions of RTI reveal surface information that is not disclosed under direct empirical examination of the physical object. For more information about RTI, applications and CHI see http://culturalheritageimaging.org/Technologies/RTI/.
