THE VIRTUAL ARCHITECTURE PROJECT



The Williams College's VirtualArchitecture site offers virtual tours of Palazzo del Te, Sant Andrea Mantova Cathedral and Bernini's Sant Andrea Al Quirinale, among others.

The first prototype, the Palazzo del Te in Mantua, Italy, was created in 2002. Since then the project team has documented over one hundred sites and monuments throughout Europe and North America.
The collection of virtual tours is used as a teaching resource in the classroom by the Department of Art at Williams.

Actually only this virtual tours are available.

Palazzo del Te | Sant' Andrea Mantova | San Carlo Alle Quattro Fontane | Rott-am-Inn | Sant' Andrea Al Quirinale | Die Wies (Wieskirche) | Neresheim 

The virtual tours were created using digital SLR cameras (Canon EOS 1Ds MarkII, Canon EOS 20D, Nikon D1, Nikon D100). Video was shot with a digital video camera (Panasonic 24P). Panoramas were rendered with REALVIZ Stitcher.
