Gaussian splat of the carved wooden minbar in the mosque of Sultan Qaitbay, Cairo

Exhibit 01 / 01

The

Minbar, Mosque of Sultan Qaitbay

Mamluk · Funerary complex of Sultan Qaitbay, City of the Dead, Cairo

The wooden minbar of the mosque in the funerary complex of Sultan al-Ashraf Qaitbay in Cairo's City of the Dead, recorded during a first site visit with ARCHiNOS Architecture.

Gaussian splat trained from 136 phone stills taken in one pass, no lighting, targets or scanning equipment. Pilot, version 1: the object is complete in outline; the carving reads as colour rather than relief, and the top platform is missing where nothing tied it to the flanks. A second run with a 3D scanner, targets and a dedicated staircase pass is planned.

First Gaussian splat on the archive. Captured with a phone during the first meeting with ARCHiNOS; the splat was trained and edited in the 3D Splat App and is shown as edited.
