Abstract
Virtual Reality is a novel and innovative technology which allows us,
through its applications, to experience abstract concepts and ideas, visit spaces that
are unreachable or no longer exist, and examine objects from diverse and unique
points of view.
The increasing development of VR technologies has matured enough to
expand research into multidisciplinary areas, such as archaeology, education and
art. Consequently, virtual reality interfaces, interaction techniques, and devices
have improved greatly in order to provide more natural and obvious modes of
interaction and motivational elements.
This project aims at developing an interactive virtual museum which can
be used as a subsidiary educational resource. It cater for a basic exploration of the
environment and examination of the displayed items, this museum will benefit
from developments in computer science and use audiovisual media and exhibits to
provide information about aspects of living in ancient societies, with ancient
mughal era as the starting point.
