Abstract:
WHYRE is a hands-free, sensory augmented, wearable computer designed to turn museums and archaeological sites into communicating machines. It offers a unified interface to multiple format contents, including interactive 3D, sensors driven QTVRs, and streamed animations. It is based on an IA32 mobile platform with a 3D graphics accelerator. Its operating system is Windows XP Embedded. WHYRE is being demonstrated in two primary Italian Museums. This paper reviews WHYRE requirements and features, and summarizes its evaluation process.
