ShipShape 3D Communities

ShipShape项目是威尔士大学Trinity圣大卫（UWTSD）和纽波特博物馆和遗产服务（NMHS）之间的一个合作项目，由AHRC（M&G）资助，利用了从纽波特中世纪船上回收的木材的三维数字记录。这使得随后能够在纽波特船舶中心组装1至10比例的船舶模型。该模型既具有研究功能，又具有传播功能。该项目建立在ShipShape项目的成果之上，通过在纽波特中世纪船舶的动画和数字重建中集体使用数字对象。主要目标是确定新兴的机器翻译技术是否可以在研究和传播工具中发挥重要作用，以询问遗产资产的数字传真，特别是考古船舶发现。通过与UB HCI团队合作，评估了MT接口在专家和非专家用户对此类复合数字对象进行探索和询问时的实用性。ShipShape 3D Communities建立在迄今为止进行的计算机建模的基础上，探索了这种3D数字数据集作为研究工具的潜力，以及传播的基础，特别是向非专业受众传播。这使得数据的视觉特性超越了与造船相关的技术术语中固有的问题，并增加了访问者的参与和理解。通过与AHRC资助的研究项目（伯明翰郊区，伯明翰大学）合作，该项目利用了新开发的多点触摸（MT）技术，特别是在三维复合数据集的使用方面。该项目通过制作复合数字模型和动画作为研究工具和展示物品，提供了与纽波特船项目直接相关的产出。三维多点触摸应用的使用和评估具有更广泛的意义，值得通过项目报告，专业期刊和互联网论坛进行传播。通过与专业研究小组（如Faro和Rhino考古用户组- FRAUG）、数字遗产会议（如Digital Past 2011）、互动小组（如ACM人机互动- CHI）和社区团体（如FoNS）的互动，与一系列受众进行了讨论。

The ShipShape project, a collaborative project between the University of Wales Trinity Saint David (UWTSD) and Newport Museums and Heritage Service (NMHS) funded by AHRC (M&G), capitalised on the three-dimensional digital recording of the recovered timbers from the Newport mediaeval ship. This has subsequently enabled the assembly of a 1 to 10 scale model of the ship at the Newport Ship Centre. The model is serving as both a research and dissemination function. This project built on the outcomes of the ShipShape project by utilising digital objects collectively in the production of animations and digital reconstructions of the Newport mediaeval ship. The key objective was to determine if emerging MT technologies can play a significant role in research and dissemination tools in the interrogation of digital facsimiles of heritage assets, in particular archaeological ship finds. The utility of MT interfaces for the exploration and interrogation of such composite digital objects by both specialist and non-specialist users was assessed through collaboration with a UB HCI team. ShipShape 3D Communities built on the computer modelling undertaken so far by exploring the potential of such 3D digital datasets as research tools, and the basis for dissemination, particularly to non-specialist audiences. This allowed the visual nature of the data to transcend the problems inherent in technical terminology associated with shipbuilding and increase visitor engagement and understanding. Through collaboration with a fellow AHRC-funded research project (Suburban Birmingham, University of Birmingham), this project exploited the newly developing multi-touch (MT) technologies particularly with regard to the usage of three-dimensional composite datasets. The project delivered outputs of direct relevance to the Newport ship project through the production of composite digital models and animations as research tools and display items. Usage and assessment of three dimensional multi-touch applications has wider implications, worthy of dissemination through project reports, professional journals and internet fora. Discussion with a range of audiences has been achieved through interaction with specialist research groups (e.g. Faro and Rhino Archaeological Users Group - FRAUG), digital heritage conferences (e.g. Digital Past 2011), interaction groups (e,g, ACM Computer-Human Interaction - CHI) and community groups (e.g. FoNS).
