| Abstract | In this paper, we present a case study of a museum exhibition using video avatar technology. In the National Science Museum of Tokyo, we exhibited a high-quality educational virtual environment, a reconstruction of the Copan ruins of Honduras. Using a real person's guidance and a virtual avatar's guidance, the visitors can learn about the Mayan civilization and history from the real guide, as if they are in the real Copan ruins with the guide. Using video avatar technology, audiences can listen to a detailed lecture by a Mayan archaeologist directly. Throughout these experiments, the augmented virtual environment is effective for historical learning. |
