The Application of Service Orientation on a Mobile AR Platform - A Museum Scenario
(IEEE, 2015)Mobile augmented reality has become an influential tool for digital content representation in terms of enhancing users' experience and improving the adaptability and usability of augmented reality applications. In our ... -
Augmented Reality and Storytelling in Heritage - Application to Public Gardens
(IEEE, 2015)Gardens, given its location, history, fauna, flora and environmental scenography, are places that are part of a natural heritage with its own cultural identity. These places are object of preservation, study and dissemination, ... -
Color and Hyperspectral Image Segmentation for Historical Documents
(IEEE, 2015)Several historical documents from the collection of the National Library of Oslo were acquired using a hyperspectral scanner. While each of the documents has its specific characteristics, requiring different image preprocessing ... -
A Contextualized Educational Museum Experience - Connecting Objects, Places and Themes Through Mobile Virtual Museums
(IEEE, 2015)This paper presents the results of ongoing work realizing a mobile virtual museum that enables the connection between locally dispersed museums, collections and artefacts. The mobile application interconnects venues, objects ... -
Development of a Low-Cost Application of Virtual Reality for the Promotion of Cultural Heritage
(IEEE, 2015)This paper shows the state of a research about cultural heritage whose main purpose is to allow the user to move virtually to any place of cultural or architectonic interest that, either for economic or accessibility ... -
The Digital ArchiMusic Patterns in Alhambra
(IEEE, 2015)This paper is a part of an ongoing research project that is seeking to clarify the interrelationship between the architecture of the Alhambra and Andalusian music at that time. Despite that Alhambra was built long ago ... -
Digital Panorama
(IEEE, 2015)In 1787 it was Robert Barker to invent the term Panorama, still used to today all over the world to determine a large view, up until 360 degrees. His show has traveled European cities and the American new frontier, letting ... -
Digital Study and Web-based Documentation of the Colour and Gilding on Ancient Marble Artworks
(IEEE, 2015)Greek and Roman marble artworks have been deeply studied from a typological and stylistic point of view, while there is still a limited knowledge on the pigments, dyes, binders and technical expedients used by Roman artists. ... -
Enabling Social Interaction in the Museum through the Social Display Environment
(IEEE, 2015)Visitors of museums and cultural heritage sites are not different from other types of citizens and, hence, they are getting more and more engaged into a participatory culture that encourages them to play an active role and ... -
Engaging and Shared Gesture-based Interaction for Museums - The Case Study of K2R International Expo in Rome
(IEEE, 2015)This paper presents a full life-cycle production and standardized workflow to deploy a shared and engaging gesturebased experience within a museum, connecting two different natural interaction applications. The research ... -
Engaging Community Members with Digitally Curated Social Media Content at an Arts Festival
(IEEE, 2015)Capturing, uploading, and presenting social media content online have become the standard way for people to share their experiences with friends, family members, and others. In this paper, we describe our effort to extract, ... -
Environment Map Based Lighting for Reflectance Transformation Images
(IEEE, 2015)Environment map based lighting has proven to be an effective technique in simulations and real time rendering for adding realism and conveying complex illumination to the viewer. We present a novel algorithm for using ... -
The Etruscans and the Afterlife - An Engaging Exhibition with Accurate Scientific, Technological and Communicative Requirements
(IEEE, 2015)The communication of museums, with the aim to engage and attract a wider audience, is undergoing a radical change, seeking in ICT a help. The joint exhibition ''The Etruscans and the Afterlife'', hosted by the National ... -
