CINECA DISPLAY
The experience "VIRTUAL CULTURAL HERITAGE" is the result of a collaboration of the Visitlab (Visual Technology lab) of CINECA and the University of Bologna.
The first of the two applications is an interactive experience in virtual reality, suitable for children and teens, able to stimulate the interest of users towards objects and environments belonging to the great cultural heritage of our country. The models used are philologically rigorous, while the application, currently available on the Oculus visor, is easily "portable" on different technological platforms.
The second application today brings the Muvi project to the Oculus, with the navigation of two rooms in a 1930s house. MUVI - Virtual Museum of Daily Life in the twentieth century (muvi.cineca.it) describes the changes that have occurred in the lives of Italians through the reconstruction of domestic environments.
