A 3D-printed duck-billed dinosaur’s skull could help us learn what it sounded like

  • Using Parasaurolophus fossils, researcher Hongjun Lin from New York University created a 3D-printed model of the dinosaur's head crest.
  • The model, named 'Linophone', helps researchers understand the acoustic capabilities of the Parasaurolophus.
  • Preliminary findings suggest that the Parasaurolophus' crest was used for resonance, similar to modern birds with crests.
  • The mathematical model and physical model will be used to study other animals with similar vocal structures and potentially recreate the sound of the Parasaurolophus.
