eventresources: Immersive Vision Theatres and Strategies for Knowledge Transfer

Report from the Methods Network seminar organized by Michael Punt, University of Plymouth (13 December 2007).

This workshop considered content design for immersive vision theatres. These are typically planetariums refurbished and modified to accept ±180 degree digital projection. Facilities such as these are increasing in the UK in the HE and the museum sector, and with the advent of portable inflatable domes, there is a growing interest in primary and secondary sectors.

This event aimed to identify:
