Connecting the Past and the Future: Digital Restoration Technology of Ancient Ceramics and Its Impact on the Cultural Heritage Industry

Abstract

In order to explore the problem of digital restoration of ancient ceramics and dig deeper into the archaeological value of ancient ceramics, this paper takes three ancient ceramics from the Ming Dynasty (AC 1368~1644) as the research objects, and uses Sony 230 4K electron microscope and Vinda 400 3D scanning equipment to reproduce ancient ceramics. First, observe the fracture location of the ceramic with a microscope and calculate the diameter between the cracks. Then, a 3D scanner is used to digitize and plan the restoration accordingly. Finally, the impact of ancient ceramics on the cultural heritage industry is shared by combining restoration techniques and results. The results show that the location of the fracture can be determined more accurately by microscopic observation. After 3D scanning, the ancient ceramics can be virtually repaired, avoiding ceramic damage and improving the accuracy of the restoration. Therefore, digital restoration technology and modern scientific and technological means can excavate the value of ancient ceramics, realize the connection between the future and the past, and tap the deep cultural heritage value.
