UCL Enterprise Awards 2011 - Audio

UCL's partnership with Arius 3D dates back to 2006, with the installation of a state-of-the-art 3D colour laser scanner at UCL and a shared-use agreement. The facility, unique in Europe, maintains its world-leading position through generous hardware and software upgrades from Arius 3D. To date it has generated over £2.5m in research funding proposals and partnerships with many cultural organisations including the British Museum, the Science Museum and English Heritage. In 2009 the agreement was renewed, leading to a new partnership with Irish company IET, to create 3D image libraries and virtual touring exhibitions based on the Petrie Museum collections.
