VR unlocks the chance to see extinct inventions up close. The VR Museum gathers 3D models of rare aircraft like the Handley-Page 42, Messerschmitt Me-323 Gigant, and Columbus' ships Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria. Scattered online models get sourced, fixed up, and displayed for free exploration in this casual simulation.
The collection kicks off with airplanes and plans to branch into other fields. Users view these recreated historical machines through virtual reality on PC. Fans of indie sims who enjoy straightforward discovery find a growing showcase here.
A tremendous power lies in VR. Anything you imagine, anywhere you dream, any time you envision - it can get you there.
Have you ever wondered what the Handley-Page 42 looked like in real life? Or what size was a Messerschmitt Me-323 Gigant? Or Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria? All of them are long since gone, but with the incredible power of virtual reality they can be brought back to life. And this is what the VR Museum was created for.
There are many great inventions that are only known from drawings and blurry photos. And many of them are already 3D-modelled and scattered around the net. The idea behind the VR Museum is to locate them, refurb if necessery, and show here for everyone to see. Starting from airplanes, the Museum's collection will grow to become more interdisciplinary in the future.
This is going to be exciting!
DISCLAIMER: We don't have an HP-42, nor an Me-323, nor the Columbus' caravellas yet. Mind you: YET!
