In Spring 2020, the VAR Lab collaborated with the Hagen History Center to produce five interactive exhibits. I was the Project Manager on this endeavor, and I led a team of three others.
- Exhibit 3.01 – Explore an 1890s Household
- Exhibit 3.02 – Immigrant Neighborhoods
- Exhibit 3.03 – Explore a 1950s Household
- Standalone Walkthrough – The White House @ Battles Memorial Museum
- Perry Exhibit – Remastered
Summary of what was included in the above exhibits:
- Two Interactive Recipes with twenty steps each for audience interaction.
- Ten newly created 3D models of historically relevant artifacts in the Hagen History Center’s archive.
- A standalone virtual tour consisting of thirty-five 3D 360° panoramas of the Battles Memorial Museum.
- A total of eleven AR-accessible 3D models that can be pulled up on a patron’s phone to visually interact within the museum space.
- Development of an interactive map interface for the Immigrant neighborhoods exhibit.
- Reimagining and remastering the original Perry Telescope exhibit the VAR Lab completed in 2021 *LINK*.
