The British Museum is running a trial of virtual reality technology with a view to offering it as a permanent tool to explore its collection.
Families will be invited to navigate a virtual reality Bronze Age roundhouse and interact with 3D scans of objects.
In June, London's Natural History Museum also started using VR technology.
Both museums are using Samsung Gear VR headsets.

That will be good, really good, but, how much will the public have to pay for the priviledge ?
I used to have an issue regarding having an inferiority complex, I no longer have an issue with being inferior.
