Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)
Digitization of natural history collections is a major challenge in archiving biodiversity. In recent years,
several approaches have emerged, allowing either automated digitization, extended depth of field (EDOF)
or multi-view imaging of insects. Here, we present DISC3D: a new digitization device for pinned insects
and other small objects that combines all these aspects. A PC and a microcontroller board control the
device. It features a sample holder on a motorized two-axis gimbal, allowing the specimens to be imaged
from virtually any view. Ambient, mostly reflection-free illumination is ascertained by two LED-stripes
circularly installed in two hemispherical white-coated domes (front-light and back-light). The device is
equipped with an industrial camera and a compact macro lens, mounted on a motorized macro rail.
EDOF images are calculated from an image stack using a novel calibrated scaling algorithm that meets the
requirements of the pinhole camera model (a unique central perspective). The images can be used to generate
a calibrated and real color texturized 3Dmodel by ‘structure from motion’ with a visibility consistent
mesh generation. Such models are ideal for obtaining morphometric measurement data in 1D, 2D and
3D, thereby opening new opportunities for trait-based research in taxonomy, phylogeny, eco-physiology,
and functional ecology.
