Smartphones help make 3D-models for museums
They look like ordinary tourists taking photographs of St Stephen´s 
Cathedral, one of Vienna´s touristic hotspots. But in reality they are 
computer scientists. They are convinced that the future protection of 
European Cultural Heritage could be based on... our smartphones.

HBP Video Selfie Campaign - Nicole Schubert 	
The Human Brain Project (HBP) presents its scientists and their research 
with a video selfie campaign
Both early-career and senior scientists were invited to present their 
daily work and contribution to the Human Brain Project Platforms in a 
one minute video. The aim of the video campaign was to facilitate 
engagement between members of the Consortium, learn about the work of 
different scientists and engineers, and to increase the visibility of 
individuals, in particular early-career researchers.
