I need a skull to make facial forensic reconstrction, I think is possible use this video to reconstruct the skull (only a half) with SfM technology. Can you share the DICOM file or make a 360 degree video of skull? A big hug!

We’ll be producing a few more of these soon, please keep a look out on the National Museum of Natural History Museum website.

@Rakesh Tripathi – Great suggestion, we’ll see what we can do about narration with future video renderings, although we are not great narrators ;) so we may just add captions at first.

I saw the Egyptian exhibit at the British Museum a life time ago; it would have been extraordinary to have had this technology. I think it helps one be more respectful to these people who only wanted privacy in death to see a real person. Plus, it is super to view.
