DinoScience 3D en el I Encuentro de Paleoarte

Ya hemos hablado anteriormente de la App DinoScience y su reciente retoña, DinoScience 3D. Esta aplicación, que permite tener el árbol evolutivo y una base de datos actualizada de géneros de dinosaurios, además de 14 reconstrucciones 3D de varios dinosaurios animadas en tiempo real en tu smartphone o tablet. Estas 14 reconstrucciones siguieron un riguroso proceso de creación, en el que científicos y artistas colaboraron estrechamente para incorporar los conocimientos más recientes a los modelos y sus animaciones. Este proceso de creación fue desglosado durante la charla de Daniel Vidal en el Encuentro, que lo expuso mostrando imágenes y videos tomados durante el proceso.

Aqui os dejamos el resumen del trabajo:

DinoScience 3D is an app designed for mobile devices, such as tablet computers and smartphones, which aims to teach the evolutionary relationships of the main dinosaur groups. It has an up to date database with more than 700 dinosaur genera, and includes 3D reconstructions of 14 dinosaurs animated in real time. The application was developed by the company Render Area SL in close collaboration with professional paleontologists. Although developed as a downloadable application for personal devices, it has also been incorporated as a permanent addition to several museum exhibitions from Spain. Its 3D reconstructions include the most up-to-date knowledge available in all their aspects: anatomy, biomechanics and soft tissue appearance. Here we present the process followed to build each of the digital reconstructions, addressing the benefits and caveats of the process as well as the possible improvements for future versions. DinoScience 3D can be downloaded at AppStore and/or PlayStore for free.
