Abstract

In the case of delicate elements such as fossils, the use of the scanner is the most appropriate, since it uses a technology that allows the collection of information digitally with the purpose of: information gathering, modeling or restoration or even, after modeling, it is possible that individual element assemblies can be made to duplicate elements or recreate whole bodies. The results of the application developed in this work, have approximations very close to the real ones, evidencing the effectiveness of the implemented methodology. Subsequently and once the 3D model is obtained, the necessary operations for the reproduction of the reconstructed fossil are carried out using rapid prototyping equipment; for which suitable software is used to allow these procedures to be executed and, in this way, to develop the complete integration from 3D scanning to obtaining the final element in digital or physical form.
