For the launch of Windows Vista, Microsoft invited us to develop a whole new version of Turning the Pages™, using some of the new 3D technologies in the operating system. The result is an amazing three-dimensional experience that also includes an array of new tools such as personal note-taking. The application is being used to showcase the reunification of two Leonardo da Vinci codices - Bill Gates Codex Leicester and the British Library's Codex Arundel. This will open up opportunities for scholars in a way never before possible.

Using VirtualBook, we developed a touchscreen kiosk version of Stars of Sciences, an important 17th century Indian manuscript. We filmed the curator turning the pages, modelled the book in 3D to millimetre accuracy and then build an application that gets as close as is possible to the experience of engaging with the actual book. The application is being relocated as a centrepiece of the new Wellcome Library in London in June 2007.
