**Hey!** This page is a work in progress. If you'd like to assist in the process of writing, take a look at the [git repository](https://git.myco.systems/mycosystems/midtowndrafting.com)
In the prototype lab, we provide many methods for students to learn 3D scanning through practice. This page serves as the starting point to briefly outline what we can do.
The prototype lab comes equipped with top-of-the-line hardware to facilitate the processing of large 3D models. The main components of the hardware setup include:
- **Computer**: The lab is equipped with a powerful computer, featuring:
- 2x **NVIDIA A5000** GPUs: These high-performance GPUs provide the necessary computing power for inference with NeRF models or heavy math compute for software like Meshroom, with a total of 48 GB of GDDR6 memory.
- 1x **AMD EPYC 7763 CPU**: This processor features 64 cores and 128 threads, offering exceptional multitasking capabilities.
- **8x 64GB DDR4** DIMMs: A total of 512 GB of RAM ensures smooth operation of large image datasets.
- **Camera**: The lab maintains all of the equipment to do photogrammetry, including:
- 2x **GVM LED Ring Lights**: Ring lights with 6 removeable light bars, a color range of 3200 to 5600K, adjustable from 32" to 87" height.
- 1x **Sony A6500**: A 24MP mirrorless camera capable of 4K video, has in-body stabilization, a decent 107 RAW image buffer, and an 11 fps still photo mode.
