An Immersive Environment for the Vase Museum
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present a new approach to displaying and browsing a digital library in Perseus that consists of a set of Greek vases. This approach is applicable to Digital Libraries in general, however. Our new design extends previous research by taking advantage of Virtual Reality to present context even while the user focuses on a single item. Using Virtual Reality, users are not limited to the physical screen of a computer monitor and in addition, they can directly interact with items in the museum naturally. Users can still focus on specific datum, a vase, while not losing reference of the entire museum.
