MASKHEADER
MASK Consortium is a coalition of artists and institutions sharing knowledge. Its mission is to develop and promote a more complete understanding of human history and culture through the digital preservation of art and other cultural artifacts. MASK Consortium creates strategic partnerships with museums, universities, state and local governments, corporations, and individuals who share MASK’s goal of fostering connection through cultural preservation and access.

Virtual Tour Development
Virtual Tours transform your Space Scan Data into an Interactive asset for exploration. Once your spaces have been scanned, they need to be authored into an immersive touring experience that combines virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), video, pictures, text and sound to tell a story.


The Efficacy of Spatial Storytelling
  • Spatial Storytelling with guided tour provides a passive way for a guest to quickly get an overview of the space, artworks and the artist’s creative process.
  • The interactive, immersive environment enables a guest to navigate through the exhibition space at their own pace, and in whatever sequence feels right to them.
  • Statistically, users engage with immersive environments significantly longer than 2D presentations of visual information.
  • A virtual tour does not replace a true art lover’s desire to experience works in-person, however, it is more likely to stimulate someone who does not otherwise have access to visit the gallery.
  • Enhanced Promotional Capabilities: Your Marketing Department can leverage assets produced from the virtual tour to promote the exhibition in innovative, interactive ways.
    • Embedding the Virtual Tour directly on your website enables anyone to engage an immersive experience
    • Use Tour, and Tour Feature links in Social Media Campaigns on Instagram & Facebook
    • Guests can easily share views from the exhibition with friends via their social media

Three-Dimensional (3D) Object Scanning
Most objects of all sizes and textures can be captured digitally and experienced interactively in 3D. Our team navigates the complexities of equipment choice, object surfaces, file formats, and 3D file publishing methods to help you reach your intended audience. 
  • Preservation and restoration: In fields like archaeology, art, and heritage preservation, 3D scanning is invaluable. It allows experts to digitally preserve delicate artifacts, historical monuments, and works of art for research, documentation, and restoration purposes.
  • Precise measurements: 3D scanners can capture highly accurate measurements of objects, making it valuable for engineering, architecture, product design, and quality control. It eliminates the need for manual measurements, reducing human error and improving efficiency.
  • Interactivity: 3D models can provide interaction and close-looking at an artwork or artifact which cannot be handled by the public. Augmented Reality & 3D printing enable unprecedented interactivity with rare objects.
