At Digital Content Expo 2010, Tokyo University’s Hirose-Tanikawa Lab presented a digital showcase using virtual technology.
The object inside the case is a high-resolution 3D model, based on a replica, with textures created using photos of the real object. The contents of the digital showcase are linked to a panel system, so you can choose the items you want to see among a range of exhibits.
