The Lifeplus project will provide tourists with computer-augmented versions of archaeological attractions.

Visitor will wear a head-mounted display with a miniature camera and a backpack computer. The camera captures the view and feeds it to software on the computer, where the visitor’s viewpoint is combined with animated virtual elements.

At Pompeii for example, the visitor would not just see the frescos, taverns and villas that have been excavated, but also people going about their daily life.
