Costs


At first, there are some possibilities when it comes to choice of presentation of the artwork. That will be pointed out with its respective costs depending on the patron`s budget.

First we are going to quantify the viewing gadgets.

The first possibility is using 4 projectors in a room that will show the image on the walls of the room, therefore we have to check the price:

4x........................................................................Sub Total U$219.44

The second one is using flat screens together to bring all them together and form a 360 degrees image. This would depend directly on the dimensions of the room. By disregarding that, we can still establish the pricing:

nx.............................................................................................Sub Totaln x U$309.98

And the last one is using a Vuzix VR920 Virtual Reality Device. This would not require the use of a room in the gallery. Also, there will not be need for more than one device. Here is the price:

Vuzix VR920 Virtual Reality Device......................................US $384.99

 Now, we are going to search for the prices of the sensors.

One possibility (the ideal) is to use xBox 360`s Kinect device. Although it is extremely cheap, as far as I know, it cannot be used without the xBox itself. Therefore:

Microsoft xBox 360..................................................................U$154.99
Kinect Sensor..............................................................................U$19.95

Or using a normal controller like a PS3 or Wii control.

Playstation 3 controller..................................................................U$18.99
Wii controller...................................................................................U$40.00
