ARCHiOx (Analysis and Recording of Cultural Heritage in Oxford) is a research and development partnership between the Bodleian Libraries and Factum Foundation. Using technology conceived and developed at Factum Arte, the ARCHiOx project is producing extremely high-resolution three-dimensional scans of objects from across the Bodleian’s collections. The state-of-the-art equipment used for ARCHiOx employs principles specifically designed for the capture of low-relief surface texture. These techniques can be used to record the primarily flat, but texturally rich originals from the Bodleian’s collections in exceptionally high detail. This high-resolution, low-relief capture has been termed ‘2.5D’. The 2.5D data produced by ARCHiOx can reveal textural details which are difficult to see and hard to record using traditional photographic techniques.
