Gallerie dell'Accademia - Venice

This innovative project, commissioned by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Tourism, involves Venetian Heritage (coordinator) and Samsung (co-sponsor and technology provider), in partnership with ETT S.p.A. (multimedia installations).
It is a project that has combined an important sponsorship role with that of technological innovation, allowing visitors to explore and enjoy the new gallery wing that has been fitted out to the highest standards of modern museology.

Visitors are guided round the rooms by a mobile App, either pre-installed on a rentable tablet or downloaded onto personal devices. The mobile App is designed for various types of user (young children, youths and adults) and helps visitors explore some aspects and details of the works that are not immediately apparent. This makes a visit to the Gallerie dell’Accademia interesting to younger visitors too, and they can learn the history of the gallery and its works while also having fun.
The mobile application designed for children (5-10 years) and youths (10-16 years) has a number of games that accompany them on a guided tour of all five rooms, including a treasure hunt, memory and puzzles.
The tablet Mobile App for adults has some features that give access to more in-depth information. There are, for example, theme routes, including those which may have been selected on the welcome monitor, Augmented Reality, showing what occurred during restoration of artwork or displaying it in 3D mode.

PArSJAd 3D

The Mobile App accesses information on the archaeological sites of Altino, Concordia Sagittaria, Adria and San Basilio di Ariano nel Polesine, as well as showing additional documents and multimedia material. However, it’s Augmented Reality that gives the App advanced added-value, making the guide suggestive and appealing and putting it in a class of its own.

Using the GPS technology included in the portable device, visitors are given a tour of the selected site and can enjoy Augmented Reality content showing details of particular importance.
Using the 3D modelling technique, virtual reconstructions were created based on precise scientific data.

Liguria Heritage AR

Liguria Heritage Augmented Reality (Liguria Heritage AR) is an application that uses augmented reality and 3D modelling of historical personalities to recreate moments from the past, through the voices of the characters who lived them.
Arriving near the sites where augmented reality subjects have been prepared, the application can display a digital reconstruction of the original structure, and show the exact points where it is possible to interact with the avatar personalities who tell the story. In every room, using the menu, visitors can consult audio-visual subjects which deal with art and culture, weapons and war, daily life, working tools and the documents of the age, to analyse the historical context of the facts that characterise the site. Visitors can also enter augmented reality and be involved with the personalities and uses of the age, reliving history in an original and captivating way.
