QuickTime Virtual Reality in Cultural Heritage
James Devine, Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow,
Scotland
Andrew MacDonald, Dept. Computing Science, University of Glasgow,
Scotland
The use of QTVR for computer-based display of cultural resources
provides
museums, galleries, and related organizations with an opportunity to
present
their resources in an innovative and interactive way to remote users,
and to
supplement in-house exhibits with on-line resources. This introductory
level
workshop will provide participants with an overview of the issues
involved,
and will examine the potential of QTVR in heritage management
contexts, using
examples from Glasgow University's Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery,
and
others. Participants will receive hands-on instruction in
photographing
panoramas in QTVR and in stitching a basic QTVR panorama file.
