The Fort William Henry Museum, a restoration of historical significance to our democracy, located on the southern shore of Lake George, and nestled amid New York\u2019s Adirondack Mountains, has introduced a new Augmented Reality (AR) exhibit for the 2022 season.<\/p>\n

The new AR experience, created by Frameless Technologies<\/a>, puts the viewer directly into the siege of the British fort by the French on August 8, 1757. It features a bird\u2019s eye view of the Fort, the Entrenched Camp, and the French siegeworks firing at the Fort itself. Viewers can manipulate the AR by moving their phones to explore more of the surrounding area.<\/p>\n
