A public 3D visualization tool for the ?Musée des Arts et Métiers de Paris?
Résumé
A useful and durable construction of knowledge can sometimes be built upon the experience of discovering and the construction of a contextual awareness. In this article we present a tool to browse a catalog of 3D objects taken from the Muse des arts et métiers de Paris. The purpose of this multimedia kiosk is to enhance the visit experience by helping users to built meaningful relations between objects and domains. Users select subjects of interest during the visit by collecting cards placed beside the real objects in the muse- ums galleries. The cards are tagged with reactvision fiducial marks that enable the user to manipulate the 3D object representation on the screen. We present this tool and we focus more precisely on in- teraction issues both for individuals and groups in a public context and for a private use at home.
