The use of ochre 40,000 years ago in Africa
We recorded the variables commonly used to characterize facets (size, presence of grooves or striations, localization on the fragment etc.) and conducted a non-destructive tribological analysis [...]
ARCHAEOLOGY & PALEONTOLOGY
During the last decade, the analysis of 3D images obtained through Sensofar’s 3D optical profilers in the fields of Archaeology and Paleontology are providing excellent
results for:
results for:
The analysis of wear on archaeological tools and teeth to obtain information on how people
behaved in the past.
The characterization of ablation craters associated to Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy
(LIBS) measurements.

Why an Optical Profiler is crucial for Paleontology & Archaeology
How can an optical profiler help to discover the diets of extinct species? These and other questions will be answered during this session.
How can an optical profiler help to discover the diets of extinct species? And how did our ancient ancestors use tools in the Stone Age? These and other questions will be answered during this session.
