Today's museums are embracing new technologies to help preserve and bring alive the past. VR isn't only being used to transport you to the past, but to the museum. Visitors from all over the world can virtually walk through the British Museum's galleries, wandering past over 4,500 exhibits, using innovative indoor Street View footage created in partnership with the Google Cultural Institute. Teachers can transport their students to Bloomsbury from the classroom. The British Museum, already the second most visited museum in the world, now boasts a virtual audience of over 35 million.
