Digital technologies and tools have transformed the way we can study cultural heritage and the way we can recreate it digitally. Techniques such as laser scanning, photogrammetry, and a variety of Mixed Reality solutions have enabled…
Beyond simplistic 3D visualisations, archaeologists, as well as cultural heritage experts and practitioners, need applications with advanced functionalities. Such as the annotation and attachment of metadata onto particular regions of the…
In this work, we address the issue of a virtual representation of objects of cultural heritage for haptic interaction. Our main focus is to provide haptic access to artistic objects of any physical scale to the differently-abled people.…
This paper presents an innovative augmented reality pipeline tailored for museum environments, aimed at recognizing artworks and generating accurate 3D models from single images. By integrating two complementary pre-trained depth estimation…
VR/AR technology is a key enabler for new ways of immersively experiencing cultural heritage artifacts based on their virtual counterparts obtained from a digitization process. In this paper, we focus on enriching VR-based object inspection…
Archaeologists, as well as specialists and practitioners in cultural heritage, require applications with additional functions, such as the annotation and attachment of metadata to specific regions of the 3D digital artifacts, to go beyond…
In this work, a new and innovative way of spatial computing that appeared recently in the bibliography called True Augmented Reality (AR), is employed in cultural heritage preservation. This innovation could be adapted by the Virtual…
Digital capturing of memorable personal items is a key way to archive personal memories. Although current digitization methods (e.g., photos, videos, 3D scanning) can replicate the physical appearance of an item, they often cannot preserve…
In this work, we develop a multi-modal rendering framework comprising of hapto-visual and auditory data. The prime focus is to haptically render point cloud data representing virtual 3-D models of cultural significance and also to handle…
While three-dimensional visualization has become a common tool in various cultural heritage applications, the emphasis has been on high fidelity representation, essentially the generation of digital twins or digital reconstructions.…
Interactive 3D scenes are increasingly vital for embodied intelligence, yet existing datasets remain limited due to the labor-intensive process of annotating part segmentation, kinematic types, and motion trajectories. We present REACT3D, a…
Estimating the 3D shape of an object using a single image is a difficult problem. Modern approaches achieve good results for general objects, based on real photographs, but worse results on less expressive representations such as historic…
The development of powerful 3D scanning hardware and reconstruction algorithms has strongly promoted the generation of 3D surface reconstructions in different domains. An area of special interest for such 3D reconstructions is the cultural…
Art is a variety of human activities that include the production of visual, auditory, or performing objects that express the creativity, creative concepts, or technological abilities of the artist, intended primarily for their beauty or…
This paper analyses the application of artificial intelligence techniques to various areas of archaeology and more specifically: a) The use of software tools as a creative stimulus for the organization of exhibitions; the use of humanoid…
It is human to want to touch artworks, to feel their surface curvature and texture, their shapes and structures, and to feel the hand of the artist. Museum guards need to be constantly vigilant to protect art objects from adoring and…
In recent years, supervised learning has become the dominant paradigm for training deep-learning based methods for 3D object detection. Lately, the academic community has studied 3D object detection in the context of autonomous vehicles…
We present HOReeNet, which tackles the novel task of manipulating images involving hands, objects, and their interactions. Especially, we are interested in transferring objects of source images to target images and manipulating 3D hand…
This paper describes a system to support the visual exploration of Open Data. During his/her interactive experience with the graphics, the user can easily store the current complete state of the visualization application (called a…
Active 3D reconstruction enables an agent to autonomously select viewpoints to efficiently obtain accurate and complete scene geometry, rather than passively reconstructing scenes from pre-collected images. However, existing active…
