Our team has created prototype 3D interactive media, OBJECTVR, that allow the viewer to be an active participant in the exhibition of historic fashion. These images may be displayed at up to 3 times life size and re-purposed as HTML5 to display on the world wide web. MORE OBJECTVR. Rich metadata descriptions, mapped to current standards of archiving, of these media ensure their persistent discovery, access and conservation via iDEA, the digital repository of the Drexel Libraries Group.
