So excited to have this #AR ability in Google Search - using our team's #3D data! 🚀❤️ @airandspace @smithsonian @SmithsonianDPO #Apollo50 #arcore
Search for “Apollo 11” from your AR-enabled mobile device to discover the command module that carried Armstrong, Aldrin, & Collins to the moon in augmented reality, brought to you by @googlearts 👨🚀 #Apollo50th #GoogleDoodle → goo.gle/31bbXaP
This Presidents Day, we’re sharing a collection of #3D presidential portraits from @SmithsonianNPG including 2 Abraham Lincoln life masks and a bust of George Washington as a Roman emperor! Explore their stories online or download them for your own use 3d.si.edu/collections/pr…
Kick off #BlackHistoryMonth by exploring a fascinating group of #3D objects from the collections of @NMAAHC 3d.si.edu/explore/museum… #SmithsonianBHM #BlackHistoryMonth2025
Our January #StaffPick #3D model is a pair of sneakers worn by Julius “Dr. J” Erving. Not only do they provide a peek at his autograph, but you can view them in augmented reality and see how your own feet stack up to the legend! Check them out: s.si.edu/3ZQ1MJf @NMAAHC
#DYK that the @Smithsonian has 3000 #3D digitized collection objects available to download? And over 90% of them have a #CC0 #OpenAccess license, so they can be used for almost anything. Add an aircraft to your game project or #3Dprint an ancient vessel! 3d.si.edu/cc0
#DYK we have over 3000 #3D models available to download on 3D.si.edu? They make excellent #DIY holiday gifts, like this Encyclia tampensis var. alba orchid bloom 3D printed and hand painted by our staff. @SIGardens Download it yourself: s.si.edu/3VDvKgS
FARO has partnered with @Smithsonian3D as they utilize our #laserscanners for capturing the geometry of orchids, alongside their #photogrammetry efforts to achieve high accuracy and resolution for the #futureoforchids. Read more about this project here: dpo.si.edu/blog/capturing…
Make your mark on digital history at the Smithsonian! ✍️ All you need is a computer and an internet connection to participate. If interested, please contact [email protected] to schedule a 30-45 minute session.
You can also explore a digitized model of this hard hat in 3D at: 3d.si.edu/object/3d/hard…
#OTD in 2001, the lives of nearly 3,000 individuals were taken when 4 commercial airliners were hijacked and used as terrorist weapons. In the days after the September 11th attack, the destroyed site of the World Trade Center buildings became known as 'Ground Zero.'
Over 280 3d models of freshwater mussels available at 3d.si.edu/explore?edan_l… View them on all sorts of devices, in augmented reality, or print them - the world is your oyster! #ShellYeah
You can also explore this specimen online! 🪸 3d.si.edu/object/3d/prim…
Long before it was 3D scanned, this Primnoa resedaeformis specimen was collected off the coast of Nova Scotia in the late 1800s! This slow-growing, long-lived cold-water coral is found in both sides of the Atlantic and is an indicator of vulnerable marine ecosystems.
Take a 3D tour of our Tree of Life to learn about the flora and fauna that decorate the sculpture and help bring it to life. s.si.edu/3T5eHB2 #EarthDay #DíaDeLaTierra @Smithsonian3D
Carry a little sunshine in your pocket on #OrchidDay today!🤳🌼#3D orchids from the #FutureOfOrchids collection can be viewed in Augmented Reality through your smartphone camera. Select the "AR" button in the top left of the 3D viewer: 3d.si.edu/object/3d/2249… @SmithsonianGardens
Why does @Smithsonian need @Smithsonian3D to scan its artifacts and collections? It’s not just for science. Let @NMNH’s Nicholas Pyenson explain, and then watch our video: fedtechmagazine.com/media/video/sm…
@Smithsonian3D’s Jon Blundell explains why today’s 3D scans — featured in our latest #FedsintheField video — will still be readable by future scientists: fedtechmagazine.com/media/video/sm…
Can’t get to Washington, D.C., to see the wealth of exhibits in the @Smithsonian museums? @Smithsonian3D is creating 3D models of both popular and scientifically important artifacts that can be viewed online. Find out more in our new #FedsInTheField video: fedtechmagazine.com/media/video/sm…
We are hiring! Apply to join the Smithsonian 3D team as a 3D scanning/processing technician: usajobs.gov/job/785493200 In your application, please be specific about your experience using techniques, tools, and software. This posting closes on 04/22/2024 or after 150 applicants.🚀
