Real-time localisation © All rights reserved The Vénus de Milo in 3D © All rights reserved Innovations One of the principal innovations of the Louvre - Nintendo 3DS audio guide is to offer visitors to the museum a means of locating their current position. An innovative localisation feature Housed in a huge building, with collections spread over three wings and four floors, finding your way in the museum can be daunting for some visitors. With the locator technology jointly developed by teams from the Louvre and Nintendo, you no longer have an excuse for getting lost in one of the world’s largest museums! The new audio guide allows visitors to see where they are at any moment on the museum map. With the two Nintendo 3DS screens, you can visualise the main map of the floor you are on, and your exact position. New functions The existing content has been expanded to include new functions: 3D without glasses Interactive animations, 3D models of major works, 3D images of the museum galleries… Perhaps you’d love to be able to see the back of the Winged Victory of Samothrace, but can’t get round the statue because it’s placed against a wall. With 3D technology, admire the works of art from every angle! HD photos Many high definition photos accompany the commentaries, helping you identify each object and access additional information. Use the HD zoom and see the rich detail of each piece: investigate the landscape behind the Mona Lisa, attempt to recognize the characters portrayed in The Consecration of the Emperor Napoleon (by Jacques-Louis David), and admire the architecture shown in The Wedding Feast at Cana (by Veronese). 6
