合并AR，VR和BLK360在开创性的文化遗产项目中

集体的增强现实（AR），虚拟现实（VR）和混合现实（MR）有远见的人，程序员和渲染艺术家的使命是创建一个数字复制的世界，以展示中美洲的美丽和历史，从整个过程开始危地马拉国家。

不现实的旅程团队和G2基金会正在推动非营利性文化遗产项目中高清测量（HDS），AR和VR技术的界限。

In this ground-breaking cultural project, Unreality Journeys captures ancient structures created by indigenous communities and their impact of modern society.

使用VR和AR Technologies与3D激光扫描和体积视频结合使用，Unrelity Journeys的任务是创建一个交互式数字环境，使用户可以在这些神秘的地方走动，开车和飞行。G2 Foundation总部位于新西兰的创新者和项目合作伙伴已将几个Leica BLK360成像扫描仪捐赠给了不现实的旅程，以实现该项目。

To create high-quality 3D scans of the project base, including UNESCO World Heritage Site of Antigua, Mayan ruins, 400-year-old churches and local indigenous villages the team is relying on the BLK360 imaging scanner. The teamis using the 3D scans to mesh the complex architecture and then texture with imagery。纹理的网格是虚拟现实平台的基础 - 将来也可以在AR和MR设置中使用网格和纹理元素。

Pushing the boundaries of digital cities

不真实的旅程有一个愿景 - 将危地马拉的安提瓜项目作为原型world’s-first fully-documented and scanned city, where every attraction and business can be explored in VR, AR and MR。

不现实的旅程正在通过使用最先进的无线互联网服务提供商（WISP）技术来建立数字城市和国家可以完成的界限方法。

“我们团队的主要目标是以最高质量创建数字乡村历史书籍，并让尽可能多的人免费使用它们。我们从危地马拉，然后是中美洲的其他地区开始，最终是更多的国家。我们将专注于具有悠久历史的发展中国家，要求保存，但可能没有资源来这样做，尤其是在高水平上，”不真实旅行总监雷米·马克斯（Remy Malex）说。

Speeding things up with the BLK360

这种大小和复杂性的项目需要快速，便携式且易于使用的扫描仪。该项目范围包括扫描众多历史性内饰，这些内饰需要高水平的细节才能得到真正的赞赏。与手掌合身1公里的重量, the BLK360 has proven to be big enough for this project. The BLK360 workflow has enabled the project team to quickly and efficiently collect and process in REGISTER360 and ReCap copious amounts of quality data.

“The BLK360 was a dream come true and we decided to get a few units and take this project full force。

“Prior to obtaining the BLK360, the workflow was based around photogrammetry. This workflow involved taking thousands of photographs to be able to create a point cloud, then turned into a mesh, refined and then textured. The BLK360 dramatically improves this workflow as the project team can remove a large step in creating the point cloud with the added advantage of generating a more accurate and detailed mesh. Because the initial data is better, the mesh quality is also improved. The BLK360 has greatly improved efficiency on site and generated a better product,” Malex说。

随着来自世界上最糟糕的成像激光扫描仪的数据，完成的项目将允许用户数字地体验整个国家。Online visitors will be able to virtually walk the black sand beaches of Guatemala’s south coast, explore the jungles of Petén, drive a riverboat down the mystical Río Dulce, fly to the Garifuna villages on the Caribbean coast, stroll the local artisan markets and discover the secrets of the Mayan pyramids.
