🛕 From Pharaohs to Polygons: Digitizing a 4,000-Year-Old mummy with 3D Scanning

Our team at Hiway Technologies, an Artec 3D Gold Partner in Egypt, collaborated with Expedition Unknown and Discovery Channel to scan Egypt’s oldest known pharaoh using Artec Leo and Space Spider scanners at Saqqara’s Imhotep Museum.

With high-precision 3D scanning, we captured every detail—resin traces, teeth, and the unique features of this 4,000-year-old mummy—bringing history into the digital age for research, restoration, and education.

In an episode of Expedition Unknown, the Discovery Channel team needed to create an ultra-accurate digital twin of an ancient mummy. To help with that, Hiway Technology, an Artec 3D Gold-certified partner in Egypt, expertly utilized Artec Leo and Space Spider scanners at Saqqara's Imhotep Museum متحف إيمحتب. Leo provided wireless freedom to scan every angle, while Space Spider accurately captured intricate details like teeth and resin traces, confirming the mummy as the oldest known Egyptian pharaoh ever discovered.

تشرفنا بالمشاركة مع برنامج Expedition Unknown الذي يعرض علي قناة ديسكفري لعمل مسح ثلاثي الأبعاد للمومياء المتواجدة في متحف امحتب في منطقة سقارا, و هي التي وجدت في بقايا هرم الملك مرن رع, للمساعدة في الاجابة عن سؤال تاريخي مهم و هو: هل هذه المومياء جيدة الحفظ هي مومياء الملك مرن رع أحد ملوك المملكة القديمة؟ اذا اثبت ذلك, ستكون هذه هي أقدم مومياء ملكية اكتشفت في مصر
كان احساس رائع أن نقوم باستخدام أحد أحدث تقنيات القرن ال21 للكشف عن أسرار واحدة من أقدم التقنيات التي صنعها البشر هنا في مصر
قمنا بهذا العمل باستخدام Artec 3D Scanners التي تعمل بدون لصق أهداف (Targets) بالاضافة انها عالية الدقة و كاملة الألوان و نحن نفتخر باننا الوكيل الوحيد لها في مصر بجانب اننا نقدم خدمة المسح ثلاثي الأبعاد باستخدام هذه الاجهزة. هذه التكنولوجيا تمكننا من رقمنة الاثار المصرية من أجل حفظها للأجيال القادمة

We've Proudly collaborated with "Expedition Unknown" show, screened on Discovery Channel, on 3D scanning a mummy located in Imhotep museum in Saqarra, which was initially found in the ruins of Merenre pyramid, to help answer a crucial question: can this well-preserved mummy be the mummy of Merenre, one of the Old Kingdom's Pharaohs? if so, this would be the oldest ever found mummy of a Pharoah in Egypt.
It really felt amazing when a 21st-century advanced technology was used to uncover secrets of one of the oldest technologies ever done by humans here in Egypt.
We've done this project using the Target-Free, High Accuracy & Full-Color Artec 3D Scanners, Leo & Space Spider, which we proudly resell and offer service on in Egypt. This technology can be used in digitizing our unique antiques to help preserve these treasures for the coming generations.
