Abstract

This article is a report on a project in which a group of faculty and students at the University of Central Florida placed high resolution audio-visual equipment on the downtown bus system in Orlando to be used as virtual museum sites exploring the potentially lost heritage of Orlando. This project exemplifies the potential convergence of new technologies and content for teaching, playing, and living, changing a bus ride into an education activity.
