Aspen Interactive Movie Map
In 1981, Andrew Lippman and a team of researchers captured images of the streets of Aspen
using four cameras mounted on the top of a car in different seasons of the year. The videodisc
based system could call images fast enough to simulate motion, giving users the ability to navigate
through the town. The system also included 3D models of various buildings. Note: this video clip has limited audio.
