Jason Shields recently showcased his preliminary findings at two prominent conferences: the Interior Design Educators Council (IDEC) Eastern Regional Conference in October 2023 and the Society for the Study of Architecture in Canada (SSAC) 49th Annual Conference in May 2024. His presentations, “Scanned Realities: Reinterpreting Significant Interior Environments into VR Simulations” and “Preserving the Past: LiDAR Scanning and Digital Representations of Interior Environments,” underscored the innovative potential of 3D scanning in architectural preservation and design. In 2023, the Faculty of Architecture acquired state-of-the-art 3D scanning hardware through a generous grant from the Student Innovation and Enrichment Fund (SIEF). This acquisition marked a pivotal moment for further exploration in the field. Recently, Jason Shields was awarded the UM/SSHRC Explore grant, facilitating deeper investigations into the role of 3D scanning within interior environments.
