Holographic and Augmented Reality simulations for cultural heritage

Holographic and Augmented Reality simulations for cultural heritage

Posted by | Oct 7, 2018 |

Abstract This case study presents two Mixed Reality simulation technologies which can be used for cultural heritage simulations. These technologies are Augmented Reality (AR) and Holographic Mixed Reality (HMR). Augmented Reality in our case study employs both MetaioSDK and the recent ARKit while Holographic Mixed Reality uses Microsoft Hololens. Specifically, we compare the immersive experience, interaction modality, field of view and level of presence that each of these technologies provide. Our results have been first demonstrated at the Asinou church, a UNESCO Cultural Heritage monument located in Cyprus and are currently being deployed at the Greek Ministry of Culture....

Case Study for True Augmented Reality (AR) application in Industrial Museum and Cultural and Educational Center in Thessaloniki

Posted by | Apr 3, 2018 |

Abstract This case study presents an innovative way of presenting artefacts and exhibitions in general, in a museum. This way is called “True Augmented Reality (AR)”. Specifically, this case study provides information about True AR and its adaptation to a real museum (the Industrial Museum and Cultural and Educational Center in Thessaloniki). True AR is a new innovation and evolution of Virtual Museums. Lately, the main technologies that are used in Virtual Museums are Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) and holographic Augmented Reality. This case study allows the most important innovation of True AR, which is the fact...
