The MeB project, resulted from the collaboration between the Scuola Normale Superiore and the Bargello Museums. Its main objective was the development of shared, applied research, aimed at the modernization of the scientific analysis processes and art-historical study of small-scale metal production of the Early Modern age. Moreover, it aimed at elaborating new operational solutions of potential interest for similar cultural contexts, also throughout the use of 3D laser scans.

Priorities and sectors:
Optical microscopy scanning electron microscopy with EDS microprobe (SEM-EDS); superficial, noninvasive and nondestructive analysis Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR); noninvasive and nondestructive, useful for identification of organic materials
