Research Symposium

BIO

My name is Jake Fritz, I am a sophmore at FSU studying Behavioral Neuroscience. I am from a small town near Orlando, known as Winter Park. In Highschool I played for the varsity Volleyball team and I have continued the sport here at FSU with the mens club volleyball team. In my first year at FSU, I participated in the Full Year Abroad program and lived in Valencia, Spain. There I learned important parts of the Spanish culture and parts of the language. Now I am a sophmore and actively pursuing my major. My academic goals are to graduate in 2026 and to be in the medical Field. While I am not sure what job I want after college, I hope to help provide for people as much as I can through the medical field and use what I learned in school to the best of my abilities.

"Captured".

Abstract

Photogrammetry is a continuously developing technology that enables the processing of multiple digital photographs of an object, person, or place into an accurate 3D scan. In the past, it was used in to map terrain and help create detailed maps.
For this project, I have been working with Professor Curry with experiments in the use of photogrammetry and 3D printing - the end goal being to construct a large-scale “photo booth” that would enable the instant scanning of one (or multiple) people using upwards of 100 cameras. 
The resulting scan could then be 3D printed in full color; moving photography and event documentation to the next level. While this technology currently exists in a variety of forms, Professor Curry and I see this as an opportunity to develop his design from the ground up, while expanding on previous iterations. While this technology has many commercial and non-commercial uses, we see it as a unique way of capturing events here at FSU, such as graduations and visits from dignitaries, and researchers; a 3D photo-op.
