Kudos and plugs: Mona Lisa

[dracodraconis]

Now that you're intrigued...

http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/reprint/313/5794/1730.pdf - 6 page article from the most recent Science magazine. Pages 3 and 4 list NRC (in particular, part of our research group) in second place in the Informational Graphics section of the 2006 Visual Challenge.

Now for the plug...

<td></td> <td valign="top">Next Wednesday (in English) and Thursday (in French) a presentation in Ottawa of part of our research group's work on rendering the Mona Lisa. Recommended for anyone who thinks lasers and priceless artifacts can coexist peacefully. I wasn't involved in this work (except in designing some of the graphic interface used by the scanning system) but I still think it's cool.</td>
