Dassault Systèmes and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, said they are joining forces to apply the power of "experiential 3D," or three-dimensional, technology to archeology.

Dassault Systèmes is a French company specializing in 3D and product lifecycle management software. Its 3DVIA brand division, which focuses on "virtual reality platforms," has offices in Concord.

A digital initiative called the Giza Archives Project is housed at the MFA. The project aims to “assemble and link” the world’s archaeological information on the Egyptian Pyramids at the Giza Plateau.
