요약문:
Augmented
and Virtual Reality Hub has managed various Augmented and Virtual Reality
projects in the context of cultural heritage in the UK. In this talk, I will
introduce a number of AR and VR projects, conducted by Augmented and Virtual
Reality Hub, including recent Manchester Beacons Project as part of celebration
of European City of Science (ECOS) 2016. With regard to Manchester Beacons
Project, the key
stakeholders include Marketing Manchester, Salford University, and Manchester
Metropolitan University launched the Manchester Beacons Project, in
collaboration with the US software innovator Spark Compass. The project involved
the development of a mobile application for the Manchester Science Cultural
Heritage tour using augmented reality, virtual reality and beacons technologies
in order to bring Manchester's science history to life. The project aimed to
provide visitors with a mixed reality smart tourism experience that infused an
alternative visitor experience, inspiring visitors to see places differently. It
also provided enhanced augmented reality retail experience using beacons
technology. I will present the Manchester Beacons project and discuss a
stakeholder approach employed for the collaborative smart city/smart tourism
project. In addition, I will discuss the significance of the projects, its
long-term impacts and the future plan for development.
