VRP03_TITLE=Virtual flyby of the Berkeley Campanile
VRP04_DESCR=The project will try to build a virtual environment consisting of the
Berkeley Campanile and its surroundings. The 3-D models will be reconstructed
from actual digitized photographs using Facade, a system for modeling architectu
re from photographs. The photographs will be used for real-time projective 
texture mapping on a ONYX RealityEngine2 machine. The photographs will be 
taken from a kite in order to assure full coverage of the buildings and 
the environment. The user will be able to navigate in a completely 
photorealistic setting. The most challenging part of the project will be the
implementation of the of the real-time projective texture mapping scheme which
would require instant texture matrix transformation changes, texture image 
switching, and alpha blending.
