A special exhibition uses projection equipment and temperature control devices to vividly show scenes of a dinosaur hatching. Visiting children often rush to "warm" the dinosaur eggs with their hands and watch the entire hatching process.
Through three-dimensional digital technology, 360-degree high-resolution images and other scientific and technological means, the Zigong Dinosaur Museum presents rare dinosaur fossils and geological exhibits to their audience in a creative way, making their displays easier to understand, lively and engaging. The museum not only brings the Jurassic world to life, but also serves as a classroom for natural history education.
