The virtual museum is an interactive, electronic museum where users can move from room to room, and select any exhibit for more detailed examination. The exhibits cover such topics as medicine, plant growth, the environment and astronomy.
This piece of software was developed by Apple in order to experiment with the concept of "interactive QuickTime movies", and to promote the capabilities of QuickTime.
It was distributed free of cost to 1000 schools, universities and museums worldwide. T
To facilitate interaction with the museum, it employed 'virtual navigation'. Virtual navigation utilised real-time video decompression for the display of, and interaction with, high-quality computer animation.
This project eventually led to 'QuickTime VR'
The Virtual Museum was a product of Apple Computer, Inc.'s 3D graphics group.
Still has the price sticker for $1.99 from Weird Stuff Warehouse!
