ReColor History

About

This app will allow you to view three historical objets from three museums around the world and learn more information about each of them. Since the historical sculptures have already lost their original condition, we have lost the opportunity to see them in their vibrant colors. Through this app you will have the opportunity to restore their color, as if the colors are still slightly preserved on these sculptures and look at them from all different angles.

Game Description

There are three objects in the application with different options for viewing them. Historical data is taken from reliable sources from the websites of the museums where the objects are currently located. The color interpretation is based on images of similar sculptures of those times

Key Features

• Three stable camera positions
• One freeLook camera
• Two color display options: original button and colored button
• Information panel linked to the camera position
• Object switching buttons
