This is free training for M25 Consortium library staf f\, with travel bursaries available.\n\nHave you ever wanted to use low-co st equipment to create 3D models of objects in your library\, archive\, mu seum or gallery to boost accessibility and engagement\, but you are worrie d about the technical skills that might be needed? This free one-day works hop is for you!\n\nIn the morning\, you will be introduced to Raspberry Pi \, from the assembly and installation to the use of the camera command-lin e tools to preview\, capture\, and record high-quality images and video. Y ou will experience how flexible and affordable systems such as Raspberry P i can support applications in digital archiving\, environmental monitoring \, robotics\, creative media\, and research documentation.\n\nThe afternoo n will be dedicated on transforming captured images into 3D models using o pen-access photogrammetry software. You will complete image-to-model workf lows\, learning how photographs can be processed in accurate digital recon structions suitable for archival documentation\, heritage recording\, visu alisation\, education\, and immersive environments.\n\nBy the end of the w orkshop\, you will have practical experience in camera control\, image cap ture\, and introductory 3D modelling techniques\, alongside a deeper under standing of how everything learned can be applied at your own institution. \n\nNo prior technical experience is needed. Attendees choose their prefer red lunch at one of our food court outlets\, plus tea and coffee will be p rovided.\n\nThe University of Surrey Library was a successful applicant to the M25 Consortium Innovation Fund 2025-2026 and received funding to supp ort M25 Consortium members being offered this training free of charge with travel bursaries available.\n\nProgramme:\n\n\n\n09:00 – 09:30 \nWelc ome and participant registration \n\n\n09:30 – 10:00 \nIntroduction to the workshop \n\n\n10:00 – 11:00 \nBuild your own archive camera \n\ n\n11:00 – 12:30 \nCapturing images and video \n\n\n12:30 – 13:30  \nLunch \n\n\n13:30 – 14:00 \nIntroduction to photogrammetry and 3D m odelling \n\n\n14:00 – 16:00\nCreating 3D models using open-access soft ware \n\n\n16:00 – 16:30 \nWrap up with planning on how to share the t raining locally and end of the workshop  \n\n\n\n Trainer: Dr Felix Ped rotti\, Open Research Officer\, University of Surrey Library\n\nDr Felix P edrotti is the Open Research Officer at the University of Surrey\, where h e supports open and responsible research practices aligned with FAIR and C ARE principles.
