Mini Virtual Tour of Boston Boston, Massachusetts (7/7/04) -- Just in time for Macworld Boston (July 12-15, 2004) is a new, interactive mini virtual tour of the city. Macworld Expo and Conference/Boston, the International QuickTime VR Association (IQTVRA), and CheathamLane have teamed up to create an interactive look at Boston attractions and a look at Macworld Boston's new home, the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center. It is available for download (<200kb) from: http://www.iqtvra.org/exhibit/MWBoston2004/MW_Boston_VR.mov.sit (Mac) http://www.iqtvra.org/exhibit/MWBoston2004/MW_Boston_VR.mov.zip (PC) Or to open directly in QuickTime: http://www.iqtvra.org/exhibit/MWBoston2004/MW_Boston_VR.mov The interactive tour contains about two dozen QuickTime VR panoramas and an interactive aerial map of the downtown area. "We wanted to offer Macworld attendees a fun and informative view of the ever-changing Boston cityscape," said Patrick Cheatham, of CheathamLane and one of the tour producers. "Macworld is coming to Boston this summer, so we created a virtual tour to help everyone learn more about this great city." The interactive tour also incorporates the Macworldexpo.com site design and colors. "What's new in this one," explains Patrick, "is that you can use it to send email directly from the player". Michael Quan, IQTVRA president, is a Boston local and was able to shoot some panoramas of the local sights, including one in front of the impressive new convention center. Photographers Chris Blake and Jook Leung also contributed panoramas. The IQTVRA is an international educational group dedicated to promoting applications of interactive imaging. A gallery of panoramic photos by IQTVRA photographers will be displayed at Macworld.
