X3D-based Virtual Reality Stereo-Rendered Human Heritage Exhibitions
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper discusses the work undertaken by the Archaeology Technologies Laboratory (ATL) of North Dakota State University to develop X3D-based stereo rendered Virtual Reality (VR) experiences for the purpose of educating the public on human heritage issues within an informal museum setting. Any plan to implement VR heritage exhibits must address the concern of museum administrators that such exhibits are risky, expensive ventures not guaranteed to bring visitors to the door. Through its research, the ATL seeks to leverage the advantages offered by the X3D specification to address issues of development, maintenance, and staff training costs.

متن کاملRealism vs. Reality: Creating Virtual Reconstructions of Architectural Artifacts
Virtual representations of architectural artifacts present spatial properties of particular objects. It is not sufficient to provide visual accuracy of the model without broader context. Structure, backgrounds, scenarios and narratives are necessary to immerse the viewer into virtual re-creations of the artifacts and to understand their original function. The concept of immersion has been explo...
متن کاملDigitisation to Presentation - Building Virtual Museum Exhibitions
We describe an innovative system designed for museums to create, manage and present multimedia based representations of museum artefacts in virtual exhibitions both inside and outside museums. Our system creates digital surrogates through a novel stereo photogrammetry system with little user interaction. The resulting 3D objects are refined using state-of-the-art 3D modelling software configure...
