How the Shroud of Turin encodes 3-D data

A VP-8 Image Analyzer turns the faint image into relief. Ordinary photographs collapse. The Shroud does not.

Tap play. The clip loads then — not before.

What this short puts on the table

  • STURP found no paint, dye, or scorch that explains the image. It lives on the topmost fibrils.
  • Brightness maps to cloth-to-body distance. That is why a VP-8 produces a natural 3-D figure.
  • The blood was on the cloth before the image. There is no image under the stains.
