Towards Crowd-Sourced Collaborative Fragment Matching

Activity: Talk or presentationPoster presentationScience to science

Description

Many artifacts of our archaeological heritage are preserved only in fragments. The reassembly of these parts to their original
form is therefore an essential task for archaeologists. Our project aims at incorporating the intellect of many participants from
the broad public in the solution of this complex task. To this end, we develop a web-based 3D environment, in which users can
interactively and collaboratively reassemble virtual fragments of real-world artifacts, supported by computer-aided methods.
Our primary research focus lies on identifying how to best design and setup such a system in order to maximize the collaboration
efficiency. By participating in this open reassembly process, users can gain valuable insight into the archaeological task, thus
raising awareness for our common cultural heritage in a multitude of people
