Case Study For Virtual Reality (VR) Application Of Gamified Restoration Of Archaeological Sites

Posted by | Oct 7, 2018 |

Abstract Virtual Reality is a modern technology that is used widely lately. It has many uses in different situations. One of them is Cultural Heritage. Virtual Reality is proven to be beneficial for the preservation of Cultural Heritage through the applications that are using it, as it can attract a lot of people, even children. In most cases, Virtual Reality applications that are related to Cultural Heritage are about exploring a virtual museum or monument. But what if can be used to simulate a procedure that can be split in actions, in a gamified way? What if this procedure...

Case Study For Augmented Reality (AR) Application Of Portals For The Preservation Of Cultural Heritage

Posted by | Oct 7, 2018 |

Abstract Cultural Heritage is an area that presents a great variety of opportunities for MR applications. These opportunities include storytelling (a way for visitors to learn and retain more information about the exhibitions that they explore), gamified presence (an incentivizing tool to keep them attentive during their visit) and many more. Augmented Reality is an innovative technology that can be beneficial for the preservation of Cultural Heritage. A vast variety of applications can be created about the preservation of Cultural Heritage. Not all of them, though, use the concept of AR portals. An AR application with portals could be...

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....
