Staging the mystery of these pieces
The virtual reality animation will represent three objects, including a very recently discovered piece. It is the mystery that surrounds the digitally reproduced pieces that is at the origin of this animation, and what will be based on its scenography. Visitors will be able to “try on” bronze bracelets in particular.

La transmission of knowledge is one of the potential for the development of virtual reality. Companies specializing in virtual reality have already understood this. The company Honey VR, will release at the end of the year an application allowing to relive in virtual reality the great moments of history.
