The pursuit of accurately replicating cultural artifacts has been significant throughout history, evolving from mechanical pantographs to modern digital modeling techniques. Today, precise replication enables practical applications in art and conservation, including museography, cataloging, preservation, and virtual exhibitions. Digital models serve as vital records of an artifact's condition, aiding in its conservation and restoration efforts.Recent advancements, particularly in the last two decades, have revolutionized the ability to obtain highly detailed digital models of cultural heritage objects. Studies have shown that achieving precision in the range of tens to hundreds of microns is easily attainable, allowing for the documentation and measurement of intricate details in artworks. Fringe Projection Method (FPM) emerges as a valuable tool for cutator of cultural heritage and restorers due to its high resolution and non-invasive nature.Future applications of FPM in conservation include comprehensive digitization of archaeological sites, inspection of architectural structures, integration into augmented reality and virtual reality, artifact reproduction and restoration. In laboratories, ongoing research involves applying FPM methodology to comparative studies of different relining techniques, providing quantitative data on their invasiveness. This quantitative approach aims to guide operators in selecting the most suitable techniques for conservation interventions.The growing prominence of FPM suggests its indispensable role in the future of art conservation and restoration. It represents a valuable tool for preserving cultural heritage by enabling precise documentation, analysis, and intervention. As research continues and methodologies evolve, FPM is poised to contribute significantly to the conservation field, ensuring the protection and longevity of our cultural legacy.
