The 3D models of the Historical Library of INAF Palermo
On this page, we are showing interactive 3-D models reproducing some of the volumes stored on the shelves of the Historical Archive of INAF Astronomical Observatory of Palermo. In order to reproduce these objects, we used the technique of texturing, a methodology of graphic design, with which a primitive shape modelled in 3D is added to a texture taken by object scans, or by high-resolution photography. For the texturing process, we used black-and-white photos and volume scans. The images obtained were processed with Photoshop and textures were uploaded and mapped usingLEGGI TUTTO
