Random thought:

Someone made a “camera” which tracks location & direction, and “takes” a picture by selecting the closest picture found taken from that spot & angle.

Use this new tech for a next generation of that “camera”, generating the Platonic frame which should occur from that location.

Then instead of a camera, display it in VR goggles. Allows you to walk around and see a landmark without all those pesky people ruining your view.

You can use the PhotoSynth tech described above.
