Glasgow Science Centre (Glasgow, Scotland)

Exhibit Purpose: To enable visitors to experience medical science 3D technology in a fun, interactive environment.

3Q Exhibit Experience:

• You walk into 3Q's 3D image capture station.
• Once you sit down, you will be looking at an electronic screen, which is designed to walk you through the digital cloning process.
• With your command controls (a button and tracker ball) to your right, your voice guide walks you through the process of positioning your head so your face is inline with the digital cameras.
• Once you are in position, you click the button and are captured in less than a second.
• Within a few seconds your 3D digital image or clone is processed and ready for your 3-dimensional electronic experience.
• Your 3D clone is transferred to a workstation where you can:
  • view your 3D image from all angles,
  • transform yourself into Pinocchio when he tells an untruth,
  • morph yourself into your primitive ancestor, or
  • see what you look like under the skin by registering your surface image with a skeletal X-ray.
