iHERITAGE Project : AR/VR for the enhancement and accessibility of the norman architecture of the Unesco site of Palermo

Abstract

In the context of conservation and dissemination of cultural heritage, noninvasive technologies for the generation of digital models have produced exponential growth in the quality of the data acquired. The digital contents processed allow the use of architectural contexts that no longer exist or sites that are di cult to access, thanks to the visualisation of high-resolution and immersive products. However, the process from acquisition to visualisation requires optimisation strategies and specific operational choices, depending on the design goals. The study describes some results of a broader research within the iHERITAGE Project funded by the ENI CBC MED Program 2014-2020, critically describing the procedures adopted.
