Ancient Egypt goes online with IBM

IBM and the Egyptian Government have launched the results of
a $3.5m three year, online multimedia project that reveals 5,000 years of
Egyptian history.
The Eternal Egypt project has created a centralized digital
database of Egyptian historical and cultural resources taken from nine separate
Egyptian sites and museums. Much of the technology used on the project, part of
IBM’s corporate social responsibility program, was developed by IBM Research
specifically for this task, building on previous philanthropic projects taken up
by the company.
The database includes 32 three dimensional, high resolution
images of artifacts (of which only a series of pictures are accessible over the
website due to file size), around 2,000 two dimensional images, five 360 degree
panoramic web cam views of live sites of historical importance in Egypt, plus
many reconstructed lost or damaged sites. |
