As you read through this item, which depicts the creation of a vitual version of the Roman Forum in 400 AD, think of it this way: within a few years, students will be able to have the same experience in their own classroom, and a few years after that, people will be able to experience it in their living room. I don't think people understand yet what new visual technology will bring. But imagine your favorite episode of Star Trek in 360 degree surround vision, an visual treat that allows you to walk among the figures to view the action from different angles. This exhibit in California is just the tip of a very large and interesting iceberg.
