“…The ARCHEOGUIDE project is a typical example (Vlahakis et al, 2001). Over the las decade, following the availability of relatively affordable immersive reality devices studies in the VH domain have established AR as a system that enhances users' view and understanding of CH assets (Liarokapis et al, 2005;Kim et al, 2009;Zoellner et al, 2009;Haydar et al, 2011;Damala and Stojanovic, 2012;Casella and Coelho, 2013;Rattanarungrot et al, 2014;D'Auria et al, 2015;Leach et al, 2018).…”

In recent years, Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Virtuality (AV), and Mixed Reality (MxR) have become popular immersive reality technologies for cultural knowledge dissemination in Virtual Heritage (VH). These technologies have been utilized for enriching museums with a personalized visiting experience and digital content tailored to the historical and cultural context of the museums and heritage sites. Various interaction methods, such as sensor-based, device-based, tangible, collaborative, multimodal, and hybrid interaction methods, have also been employed by these immersive reality technologies to enable interaction with the virtual environments. However, the utilization of these technologies and interaction methods isn't often supported by a guideline that can assist Cultural Heritage Professionals (CHP) to predetermine their relevance to attain the intended objectives of the VH applications. In this regard, our paper attempts to compare the existing immersive reality technologies and interaction methods against their potential to enhance cultural learning in VH applications. To objectify the comparison, three factors have been borrowed from existing scholarly arguments in the Cultural Heritage (CH) domain. These factors are the technology's or the interaction method's potential and/or demonstrated capability to: (1) establish a contextual relationship between users, virtual content, and cultural context, (2) allow collaboration between users, and (3) enable engagement with the cultural context in the virtual environments and the virtual environment itself. Following the comparison, we have also proposed a specific integration of collaborative and multimodal interaction methods into a Mixed Reality (MxR) scenario that can be applied to VH applications that aim at enhancing cultural learning in situ .

Augmented reality (AR) allows the real and digital worlds to converge and overlap in a new way of observation and understanding. The architectural field can significantly benefit from AR applications, due to their systemic complexity in terms of knowledge and process management. Global interest and many research challenges are focused on this field, thanks to the conjunction of technological and algorithmic developments from one side, and the massive digitization of built data. A significant quantity of research in the AEC and educational fields describes this state of the art. Moreover, it is a very fragmented domain, in which specific advances or case studies are often described without considering the complexity of the whole development process. The article illustrates the entire AR pipeline development in architecture, from the conceptual phase to its application, highlighting each step’s specific aspects. This storytelling aims to provide a general overview to a non-expert, deepening the topic and stimulating a democratization process. The aware and extended use of AR in multiple areas of application can lead a new way forward for environmental understanding, bridging the gap between real and virtual space in an innovative perception of architecture.

“…The overall architecture is composed of three main components: a mobile AR client, a web services framework, and participating web service content providers, e.g. the Reanimating Cultural Heritage web service [17]. This allows the mobile AR client to have a connection to a service provider through a web service framework, which will provide the client with opportunities to acquire many more associated media contents from other sources.…”

“…These are able to appropriately generate valuable contents, such as social networking data, geospatial contents, and in this case heritage data from the Reanimating Cultural Heritage web service [17] for mobile AR environments. There are beneficial features that support content acquisition • Specific content acquisition -photogrammetry is a cost saving technique where an application can conveniently obtain 3D models from a photogrammetry server (e.g.…”

“…AR has also been exploited in many approaches to presenting digital contents, e.g. advertising [14], museum interaction experiences [9,16,17,18] e-commerce [8] and many other scenarios [3,4,19]. AR has been an extensive augmenting tool that enhances a user's experience of perceptions in real time; especially in mobile indoor AR such as those concerning interactive graphic AR applications and mobile outdoor platforms, such as location based AR.…”

This paper presents a mobile augmented reality platform that exploits service-orientation for the visualisation of cultural media objects in personalised interactive museum environments. The service orientated architecture is composed of a mobile client, web service framework and service providers utilized to perform augmented reality tasks as well as support for media contents acquisition and consumption via a mobile or wireless network. The mobile client performs augmented reality tasks including multiple object tracking of physical 3D objects concurrently and then visualizes associated media contents (e.g. 3D models, videos, images, text, social media data, etc.) that are associated with the tracked physical (or reference) objects and then overlaid in the correct perspective in the real scene in a personalised museum visualisation scenario. A unique feature includes media content acquisition from open service providers through a web service framework. Typical services include, a photogrammetry service that allows users to obtain virtual 3D models of preferred cultural objects through image-based reconstruction techniques. These acquired 3D reconstruction contents can then be integrated with existing associated contents in a personalized augmented reality museum environment that can be stored and saved for later viewing, such as in the home after visiting a particular augmented reality based museum interactive. This paper focuses on describing the service orientation architectural components that supports personalized mobile augmented reality museum environments.
