I have received some feedback lately that I need to add more imagery to In the Scan. So I thought I would go the next step and see what I could find on YouTube.
I just did a search on “3D Laser Scanning”. I came up with 661 hits. Amazing! This first one is a general overview of how laser scanning works, which if you need to explain this to someone starting from scratch, perhaps even your partner or kids, might be very helpful.
A quick look at the list reveals the breadth of use of laser scanning, as well as the value of YouTube as a rich communication vehicle particularly in an industry like ours that is so visual to begin with. Digital preservation seems to be a hot topic, as does computer animation.This one seemed really interesting.
It seems that one of the best ideas for the use of YouTube is as a promotional platform for your company’s products/services, and/or completed projects. When you think about it you almost have to use a video to communicate the 3D value derived from laser scanning.
I strongly recommend you to have a look when time permits, and to also make use of this incredible medium.
