Full immersion in Cultural Heritage environments: A new IDEHA for data managing and displaying

Abstract

IDEHA (Innovation for Data Elaboration in Heritage Areas), is a PON project coordinated by CNR, aimed to an open platform for real-time aggregation of Cultural Heritage elements (sites, monuments, etc.) data, and their "packaging" in sets of informations for different targets of outlined public. The main tool conceived for displaying data (spread from different sources: news, digital libraries, IoT, etc.) is an immersive viewer capable of displaying 360° images and videos, all multimedia inserts html5-compatible, and multi-language audio-synthesized messages. Such a tool is presented here. It has been planned thanks to the effort of CNR and Engineering, and will be released in order to become a trigger of further initiatives both commercial and free.
