A particle accelerator helped scientists create stunning 3D ants
Researchers have developed a high-tech system that rapidly scans ants and converts them into detailed 3D models. Using a synchrotron accelerator, X-ray imaging, robotics, and AI, the team scanned 2,000 specimens in just a week and produced models of 800 species. The images reveal microscopic anatomy that was previously difficult to study. The growing Antscan database could become a powerful digital library of biodiversity.
Moment of Science: “Antscan” project uses particle accelerator to map small insects in 3-D
It's the world of ants like you've never seen it before! Dan Smith shows how biology and particle physics are teaming up in the "Antscan" project. 🐜
You’ve Never Seen Ants Like This Before
The Antscan database captures the tiny insects’ diversity and shows how the world’s living things could be rendered in three dimensions.
