Tracking, visualisation and interaction for virtual reconstruction of cultural heritage in mixed reality

Published: 06 December 2023 Publication History

Abstract

This paper explores the use of mixed reality (MR) technology in the virtual reconstruction of cultural heritage sites. Specifically, it focuses on the areas of tracking, visualisation, and interaction, which are key components in creating an immersive and engaging MR experience. Through a review of the latest developments in the field, the paper presents a state-of-the-art analysis on a few chosen examples of MR technology in cultural heritage applications. The development of an MR application virtualising a digitalised scenography piece of the "Othello" play is explained, consisting of concept design, implementation, demonstration and testing. It discusses the benefits of using MR for cultural heritage in comparison to virtual reality (VR). Additionally, the paper highlights future trends and directions for the field. Overall, a comprehensive overview of the current state and potential of MR technology in the virtual reconstruction of cultural heritage sites is provided.
