ARCO digital heritage project

In the ARCO—Augmented Representation of Cultural Objects—project we have designed and developed a database driven content management system that includes tools for organising and storing your digital content and building virtual exhibitions by bringing your digital content together with our virtual exhibition templates designed for you that allow publishing of your virtual exhibition to the web as an integrated part of your existing web site.

EPOCH digital heritage project

In the EPOCH—Excellence in Processing Cultural Heritage—project we have designed and developed a multimodal interface for interacting with digital heritage artefacts. Multimodal access to museum artefacts can help the user to better understand and appreciate the objects and stories that the museum brings forward, but also creates a closer psychological bond between the user and his past. We use a 3 DOF orientation tracker with associated electronics embedded in a physical replica of the museum artefact to explore the story behind the actual artefact.

DISPLAYS digital heritage project

Digital Library Services for Portable Antiquity and Shared Heritage concept and objectives are to provide a Digital Library Services System that allows specified ‘communities of practice’ such as museums and archaeological societies, local history groups, and metal detector clubs (individuals and organisations)on a large European scale to archive (by acquiring), share (by contributing) and use (by exploiting) their archaeological and historical data, knowledge, understanding and wisdom (through learning) in a safe, accountable and self-preserving way (through transparent migration of digital content to facilitate long term preservation).
