The article discusses the possibility of using 3D laser and 3D structured light scanning technology to support the restoration of museum objects and presents the concept of applying techniques of 3D scanning and CAD processing to create a model of the missing fragment of a museum object, based on scans of the damaged surface and fragments of the object with a similar shape. The resulting model can be used as a base element in the restoration of the original shape of the artifact, both virtually and in reality. The paper also presents the proposal of a process of reconstructing a missing fragment model of an actual museum object (an exhibit from the Zamoyski Museum in Kozłówka) using the method in question and mobile 3D scanning equipment.
