+ | With our Hackathon prototype for a virtual 3D exhibition in VR we tackle several challenges. | ||
+ | |||
+ | • The challenge of exhibition space: | ||
+ | many collections, | ||
+ | |||
+ | • The challenge of exhibiting light-sensitive artworks: | ||
+ | some artworks – especially art on paper – are very sensitive to the light and are in danger of serious damaged when they are permanently exposed. That’s why the Graphische Sammlung ETH Zurich can’t present their treasures in a permanent exhibition to the public | ||
+ | |||
+ | • The challenge of involving the public: | ||
+ | nowadays the visitors do not want to be reduced to be passive consumers, they want and appreciate active involvement | ||
+ | |||
+ | • The challenge of the scale: | ||
+ | in usual 2D digital presentations the user does not get information about the real scale of the artworks and gets wrong ideas about the dimensions | ||
+ | |||
+ | • The challenge of showing 3D objects in the digital space: | ||
+ | many museum databases show only one or two digital images of their 3D objects, so the user gets only a very limited impression | ||
+ | |||
+ | Our Hackathon prototype for a virtual 3D exhibition in VR | ||
+ | |||
+ | • offers unlimited exhibition space in the virtual reality | ||
+ | |||
+ | • makes it possible to exhibit light sensitive artworks permanently using their digital reproductions | ||
+ | |||
+ | • involves the public inviting them to slip into the role of the curator | ||
+ | |||
+ | • shows the artwork in the correct scale | ||
+ | |||
+ | • and gives the users the opportunity to walk around the 3D objects in the virtual space | ||

+ | We unveil a window into a future where you can create, curate and experience virtual 3D expositions in VR. | ||
+ | We showcase a first exposition with a 3D-Model of a globe like in the Collection of Astronomical Instruments of ETH Zurich as a centerpiece and works of art from the Graphische Sammlung ETH Zurich surrounding it. Users can experience our curated exposition using a state-of-the-Art VR headset, the HTC Vive. | ||

+ | Our vision has massive value for practitioners, | ||

+ | ==== Project Impressions ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | On the very first day, we create our data model on paper by ensuring everybody got a chance to present their use cases, stories and needs. {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | On Friday evening, we had a first prototype of our VR Environment: | ||
+ | |||
+ | On Saturday, we created our interim presentation, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Saturday evening saw our prototype almost finished! Below a screenshot of two rooms, one curated by experts and the other one containing artificially generated art. {{ : | ||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | Our final project status involves a polished prototype with an example exhibition consisting of two rooms: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Walking Around The Globe: A room | ||
+ | curated by art experts, exhibiting a selection of old | ||
+ | masterpieces (15th | ||
+ | century to today). | ||

+ | Style transfer: A room designed by laymen | ||
+ | showing famous paintings & derivates generated by | ||
+ | an // | ||
+ | style transfer. | ||

+ | In the end we even created a mockup of the possible backend ui, the following images are some impressions for it: | ||
