An Open-Source Authoring Solution for Cultural Heritage Augmented Reality Applications
Résumé
Augmented Reality (AR) technology has revolutionized the way we interact with our surroundings, offering immersive experiences that blend the physical and digital worlds seamlessly. In the cultural heritage and scientific mediation domain, the ability to create AR applications may significantly enhance visitor engagement with historical sites and artifacts. However, the technical complexities of AR app development often pose a barrier for curators and museum managers who lack coding knowledge. We present an open-source solution that is set to democratize AR application authoring by eliminating the need for coding expertise. Our tool is specifically designed to empower museum managers to effortlessly design and deploy AR experiences. By open-sourcing this solution, we hope to pave the way for widespread diffusion and adoption.
