Abstract

This paper discusses one of the first projects of laser scanning by means of 3D handy scanners in documentation of antiquities (artefacts and objects) in the National Museum of the Sudan in Khartoum. Two types of 3D handy scanners were tested on a selected sample of antiquities.

An analysis of the data was subsequently performed, with the aim to evaluate results from both types of scanners and assess the possibility of combining both types of scanners in specific tasks.
