- Description
- Cultural heritage institutions such as galleries,
museums and libraries increasingly use digital media to present
artifacts to their audience and enable them to immerse themselves
in a cultural virtual world. With the application eXhibition:
editor3D museum curators and editors have a software tool at hand
to interactively plan and visualize exhibitions. In this paper we
present an extension to the application that enhances the workflow
when designing exhibitions. By introducing multi-touch technology
to the graphical user interfaces the designing phase of an
exhibition is efficiently simplified, especially for non-technical
users. Furthermore, multi-touch technology offers a novel way of
collaborative work to be integrated into a decision making process.
A flexible export system allows to store created exhibitions in
various formats to display them on websites, mobile devices or
custom viewers. E.g. the widespread 3D scene standard Extensible 3D
(X3D) is one of the export formats and we use it to directly
incorporate a realtime preview of the exhibition in the authoring
process. The combination of the tangible user interfaces with the
realtime preview gives curators and exhibition planers a capable
tool for efficiently presenting cultural heritage in electronic
media.
