![]() It is believed by proponents to be the burial cloth of Jesus Christ and a physical testament / record of his crucifixion and resurrection. The image is recorded onto only the top surface of each fiber, with a depth of approx. Therefore, it is believed that the man was laid upon the cloth, and then the cloth was folded over him. It contains both the anterior (front) and posterior (back) images. It contains an "image" of a man who has been beaten and crucified. I can say that the Shroud of Turin (Holy Shroud) is an ancient linen cloth that measures 14'3" long (4.36m long and 1.10m wide). I would suggest that you access the vast amount of information online, or in print, for that information. I have no authority or expertise concerning the past history of scientific and technical investigations into the Shroud of Turin. What is the Shroud of Turin or Holy Shroud? (above): The Holy Shroud of Turin (anterior). I propose that the non-destructive recording of laser 3D holograms of linen fibers could provide an opportunity to break this long-held scientific and technological investigative barrier. Visual examination relies on already-existing, traditional, photographic documentation. The Shroud of Turin has always been a somewhat limited resource for scientists in that access for physical examination is heavily restricted. It is this aspect of holography that we will be discussing with regards to the Shroud of Turin. ![]() While the method of photography provides for the capture and recording of brightness and contrast, the method of holography adds an additional element of dimension: through the constructive and destructive interference of a spatially coherent light source. It is also important to not get your holographic information from anyone who has not actually worked with holography, as (1) contrary to popular belief, there is little in common between photography and holography, and (2) there continues to be vast amounts of inaccurate information concerning what a hologram is, and isn't. It is of paramount importance for the reader to not confuse what is known as the "photographic evidence" with the "holographic evidence". That, and much more, is possible with the Nobel prize-winning field of laser holography. History Channel's "The Real Face of Jesus?" DVD can be found here.Proof-of-concept: The author examines the ability to continue true, spatial 3D visual examination of the Holy Shroud of Turin long after it has been returned to its safekeeping. While we cannot say if the Shroud is the burial cloth of Jesus, we can say that the wounds it depicts are consistent with those described in the gospel accounts. There are wounds from scourging, wounds to the wrists and feet, numerous head wounds, and a side wound. ![]() The man in the Shroud appears to have suffered well over a hundred and thirty different injuries. ![]() Using sensitive digital color mapping, Downing enhanced the blood image to produce the blood map you see in the above image. This blood was then "lifted" from the body image and applied to the 3D computer model of the man in the Shroud, as featured in "The Real Face of Jesus?". ![]() On that ancient linen there are two distinct and different images: the body image and the blood image.ĭowning noticed a slight difference in color between the body and the blood images. During the production of the program "The Real Face of Jesus?" for the History Channel, 3D computer graphics artist Ray Downing of Studio Macbeth worked with high definition photographs of the Shroud of Turin. ![]()
