Model 80 - Hemidactylus platyurus - gliding pose

This is a higher resolution 3D mesh of a live house gecko (Hemidactylus platyurus) depicted in a typical gliding pose. This lizard was photo-captured with the Beastcam MACRO in the Irschick lab at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. Mass is 4.6 grams. CGI artist Johnson Martin retopologized and reconstructed the gecko from images captured with the Canon G16 cameras. We partnered with Cameron Siler from the University of Oklahoma and Tony Gamble from Marquette University to create this model, which they will use for tesitng models of gliding and predation in geckos. Creation of this model was supported by NSF grant 1657662. Downloads are freely available for creative and non-profit use. To inquire about licensing, please visit www.digitallife3d.org
