Virtual Heritage at iGrid 2000 (2311.10303v1)
Published 17 Nov 2023 in cs.HC
Abstract: As part of the iGrid Research Demonstration at INET 2000, we created two Virtual Cultural Heritage environments - "Virtual Harlem" and "Shared Miletus". The purpose of these applications was to explore possibilities in using the combination of high-speed international networks and virtual reality (VR) displays for cultural heritage education. Our ultimate goal is to enable the construction of tele-immersive museums and classes. In this paper we present an overview of the infrastructure used for these applications, and some details of their construction.
