Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Report on the development of a virtual reality reconstruction of the eleventh-century abbey at Cluny, in eastern France. The simulation was unveiled to the public at Imagina '93 in Monaco, and could be explored simultaneously in Cluny and Monaco. It is based on the collected research notes of the late professor of architecture, John Kenneth Conant, and was made by two postgraduate engineering students with equipment provided by IBM France. Though the programme is not commercially available yet, visitors to the real (but ruined) abbey of Cluny can use the head-mounted-display version of the VR simulation or watch it on video through an interactive computer terminal. The Roman town of Thermes de Lutèce, where Paris now stands, has also been reconstructed using VR technology by a research division of IBM France, and there are apparently other similar projects being planned. | ||||
