Partners

ACI works with a number of key partners within academia and industry to ensure that appropriate expertise is provided where needed, to ensure the optimum delivery of projects. Several of these partnerships have themselves developed out of projects, or through expertise created during wider research projects within Archaeology at Southampton.

ACI regularly works with individuals and organisations from within the creative industries sector as a means to provide appropriate expertise.

3D Scanning Ireland

3D scanning Ireland was established by Pat Tanner and specialises in the capture and 3D modelling of physical objects through laser scanning. A specific area of expertise is in the digital reconstruction of historic ships, of which Pat is a world-leading propenent. His innovative methods allow every element of the ship to be modelled at full-scale, and assigned real-world material properties. Models can then be subjected to further naval architecture analysis to assess hydrostatics and stability, allowing reconstructed ships to be was more realistic in their physical characteristics than allowed by traditional methods.
