Based on the VR display project of the museum, this paper elaborates the temporal restoration, spatial restoration, and immersive experience of virtual reality technology and discusses the basic research of virtual reality technology in the museum, the display of the platform, and the prospect of cultural communication. By studying the working principle of somatosensory interaction technology, the development status of the somatosensory interaction device Kinect, and the programming algorithm, this paper explores its development trend and application prospect in the field of interactive exhibit design and production in science and technology museums. A prototype system of human-machine interaction is realized in the exhibit design, using Unity3D as the engine to build the interaction platform, and using webcam and other interactive devices to realize somatosensory interaction, improve the design scheme of interactive science exhibits, and practice diversified and multisensory innovative exploration of science forms.

“…The larger group, education and tourism, includes 54% of the cases. On the education side of the category, Graf et al [42] interconnects venues, objects and stories to increase learnability in museums. In the same trend, Mikovec et al [57] use a serious games platform to acquire, present, interact and educate through CH data.…”

This study surveys the state of the art in usability and user experience strategies applied to applications that deal with large amounts of data in the field of cultural heritage, highlighting the most prominent aspects and underlining the under-explored. In these applications, large amounts of data need to be wisely presented to help final users at drawing conclusions and making decisions. While sophisticated technology may be used to improve the user experience, it should not be applied to the detriment of usability, which is critical for the success of these applications. We performed a systematic mapping study to classify the literature retrieved in the four largest scientific databases by a structured search string. We classify applications according to purpose, intended users, the way they address and evaluate user experience and usability, among others, and include the analysis of combined results through maps. Findings reveal the contradiction that while most articles are intended for the education and tourism of the general public, only half of the studies evaluate usability. Moreover, there is a significant research gap in user interfaces for systems in the context of preventive conservation, for research, assessment and decision assistance. This is the first systematic mapping study combining usability and cultural heritage, especially for data-oriented applications. It shows that more research is necessary to assist conservators and researchers and to address usability from early stages of development.

“…A study shows that information aesthetics in educational applications include information visualisation and generative art could contribute to learning experiences and support the learning technique [53]. Graf et al [54] mention that the learning process will improve memorability because it enables learners to reproduce images or concepts or repeat the exact words or contexts. Another study states that aesthetics elements and the usability of the system aim to motivate education or modify users' behaviour in improving their understanding on the learning process [55].…”
