Unlocking history through automated virtual unfolding of sealed documents imaged by X-ray microtomography

Here, the authors present a fully automatic computational approach for reconstructing and virtually unfolding volumetric scans of locked letters with complex internal folding, producing legible images of the letter’s contents and crease pattern while preserving letterlocking evidence.
