X vs VerticalChinese

X - PAND is an application developed by NAIS S.r.l. and entirely dedicated to one of the most fascinating monuments of Villa Adriana: the Teatro Marittimo (Maritime Theater). The app allows to access traditional information contents (text, images, videos) and immersive experiences by exploring selected scenes in Virtual Reality (VR). The VR contents can be used anywhere (at home, at the sea, on the road, at the office ...), but the best experience is, undoubtedly, on-site. X - PAND is a smart product designed to support tourists to the discovery and "reading" of one of the most famous monuments of the villa through a 3D model, which volumetric hypothesis is based on the most accredited and recognized studies by archaeologists and academics; also, the materials' decorations presented are those certainly documented. What is unknown has not been characterized intentionally.
