This symposium was themed around how practitioners in cultural heritage, ranging from natural science to humanities, are utilising cutting edge visualization technologies for research and public engagement. These novel technologies, digitization methods such as laser scanning and computed tomography and visualization technologies such as 3D printing, augmented reality and virtual reality, promise to revolutionise the ways in which researchers and institutions can organise, educate and facilitate cultural heritage. 3DVis was organised to bring together experts in the field, both companies from industry with expertise in delivering such experiences and practitioners who design and require such technologies. This event was sponsored by the Oxford University Museum of Natural History and the University of Warwick.
In Session 3 we discuss how companies and industrial partners utilise these technologies for public engagement, such organizations sharing their expertise and experience. This session will be opened by Thomas Flynn from Sketchfab, who will speak on how the Sketchfab platform supports outreach practice.
