Abstract :
We developed and operated an exhibition system which satisfies two requirements of a museum exhibition simultaneously: compatibility between personalization of the information and handling of high attendance, and flexibility to accommodate the visitor\´s desired degree of interactiveness for acquiring knowledge. To realize this feature, we used the "excursion metaphor" concept to integrate different exhibition methods into a single system. In this paper, we present our scalable VR architecture which integrates different types of VR systems, and the implementation of our exhibition system based on scalable VR architecture.
