This is crucial for the future of electronic use of virtual objects and solves some of the accessibility conundrum of curator white glove patrolling in museums which is such a barrier to object study. Even as a curator myself, I did not realize how close to viable the VR process was, I want to learn more and sign up for your session. Hope the files aren’t so huge that I can eventually use them on my independent scholar type websites. Thanks.

Your example of the garment convinces me it’s worth it. I am very interested in learning more about your project. See you at Camp.

Let me add - this can become more of a "hack" session if people are interested. I could provide sample images and you could download the free version of the Object2VR software and try it out - I could talk you through the steps and share what I've learned.
