It is quite interesting, although more probably could've done with the interaction in the end.

A lot of runestones have similar inscriptions, memorializing a dead relative. The English translation is at the beginning of the video:

I have an interest in runestones and northern European history, but I can see this kind of thing having a very broad appeal. I hope other museums sit up and take notice of this innovative use of technology. It wouldn't take much to modify it for pretty much any exhibit. Wow, this is incredible stuff.
