The Heritage Science and Engineering Network with UCL Centre for Digital Humanities is pleased to organize a tour of the UCLDH Digitisation Suite along with a presentation from UCL Special Collections of books from the collection that have been imaged in the past by UCL researchers.

The suite is fully set up with state of the art capture for both 2D and 3D objects. We have a range of cameras, flat bed scanners, microfilm and microfiche digitisation facilities, a 3D scanner, and facilities to convert audio and video to digital formats. These facilities are available for taught courses, such as the Introduction to Digitisation module in UCLDIS, and are regularly used by PhD students and researchers working in this area. We also offer a 4-day training course in Reflectance Transformation Imaging.

There will be a wine reception in G31, Foster Court immediately after the tour.

All welcome to this free visit but very limited places so please register to attend
