| Description: | The purpose of the 'Virtual Museums' project was to create a virtual environment where visitors of the participating museums will be able view their exhibits either through Internet or locally. This environment will fulfill research, cultural and educational purposes. Users may therefore be researchers, as well as students or in general, people that are interested in the exhibits of each of the participating museums. All of the user categories will have easy access to the museums without the need of their being physically present. Additionally, the project aims to create the software tools necessary for the museums' supervisors to add and/or remove exhibits from the virtual environment according to their needs. |
