Abstract

Museums in the world contain billions of objects (the Smithsonian alone has some 250 million things). Three-dimensional scanning is now cheap, and we can expect to see a flood of scanned solid objects join the even more numerous images and videos that we now have. Although we haven't yet solved the problems of managing two- dimensional scanned images, we're about to face the more complex problem of 3-D objects.
