The photogrammetry process was handled by Steve Vinson, Lingxin Zhang, and Chris Davidson. Mohamed Abdelaziz was responsible for processing the images. The Nikon D850 camera with a 35mm lens captured the initial shots. A 3D model of 50k polygons was created in Zbrush, followed by texture baking for normal, height, ambient occlusion, and cavity maps in Xnormal, while the albedo map was generated using Agisoft Metashape.
