| Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris |
| In the last half of the twentieth century, historical building preservation became an increasingly important issue and had been recognized on local, state, national and international levels. The environmental, economical, educational, social and psychological benefits of preservation have been proven from time to time, and should not be underestimated. The purpose of this paper is to explore the role of usability on using virtual reality photography applications as a way to appreciate and preserve Malay houses at Kampung Baru in Kuala Lumpur. Attention was given to propose guidelines and educational potential of walkthrough simulations of Malay houses in Kampung Baru through linked virtual reality photography system. One of the most obvious applications of virtual reality was the familiar architecture walkthrough of the structures and the other interior parts of the buildings through a mouse pointer. The possibilities of applying virtual reality technology in city simulations can be used for city planning practice and will include the cooperation of Internet GIS and VRML (Virtual Reality Modelling Language). Users can walk around and fly through the real scene of Malay houses in Kampung Baru in Kuala Lumpur. This research will conclude with a short consideration of future development and recommendations relating to the delivery of information and documentation of our historical buildings through virtual environments. Furthermore, through virtual reality, we will discuss how interactive messages can be delivered to the public in a way to appreciate, protect and educate people about our valuable Malay houses in Malaysia. To address these issues, this project will focus on improving and facilitating current methods of recording and documenting historical buildings.
