In each of LMI Group’s arts and cultural heritage projects, and in individual discrete engineering undertakings of NC3 not directly related to these other projects, LMI Group is pushing the traditional boundaries of science and technology in the arts and cultural heritage sectors, engineering individual nodes that tackle specific problems but based on fundamental advances, and with long-term game changing broader goals in mind. NC3 is currently engaged in what it views as Alpha and Beta conceptual and engineering development.
