marie...

the following is a compilation of the thread, with a reference to an artical included. to me, it just struck me as a natural application. so it did to others a lot earlier, as the thread shows.

I read your note on the RP user group about RP being used for
reconstructing archeological and paleontological finds out of fragmented
remains. Where did you read about it? I would appreciate any help you
have time to give.

Thanks,

thread discussion:

this is an interesting application of RP. was the model made to show the damaged bone structure using CAT or similar data? other interesting applications could include reconstructing archeological and paleontological finds out of fragmented remains. i've read with interest the recent exchange of notes on converting CAT (computerized axial tomography) and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) data to .stl and CAD databases.
