Опубликовано 22 июня 2016, 1:10

ChronoZoom is an open-source community project dedicated to visualizing the history of everything. Students, teachers and researchers can collaborate through ChronoZoom by sharing information via data, tours and media. Simple authoring of timelines with mixed media and data inside ChronoZoom make it easy for users to create and share their own timelines. During his internship Alexander created a proof of concept for using ChronoZoom as an interactive exhibit in a museum environment. He collaborated with the MOHAI and SAM in Seattle. Using ChronoZoom, Alexander built a tool that can be easily deployed and used in museums as an exhibit. The core difference between the museum experience and the general public use of ChronoZoom is an offline version of the tool with museum specific features, such as restricted access mode, auto playing, navigation and other. Alexander will discuss his process and demonstrate his prototype during this talk.
