Using virtual reality to enhances efforts for introduce cultural heritage

Abstract

At present, cultural heritage is in a dangerous condition and it is all influenced by several factors such as natural disasters and man-made disasters. For example, in Indonesia in March 2018 there was a destruction of the Dayak Indigenous Sites whose cases were damaged due to human factors, not to mention talking about the destruction of damaged cultural sites such as in several countries such as Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan & Indonesia. The use of technology-based Virtual Reality (VR) in maintaining cultural heritage is very important because the identity that is in cultural heritage is the foundation of evidence of human life in the past. Threats in the form of human behavior and natural disasters have an impact of erasing historical and cultural traces which could threaten a nation in relation to the main national interests of a country. Maximizing the benefits of technological advancements by using Virtual Reality as an alternative to preserve cultural heritage & cultural exploration, this utilization can lower the cost of study of cultural exploration such as exploration of cultural heritage locations that are far especially in transport costs.

Multi-Disaster Risk Mitigation through Augmented Reality Conservation Map for Enhancing Cultural Heritage Attitude

“…VR can communicate the architectural and tectonic qualities of a historical structure without damaging it (Le, 2021& Süvari, 2023. VR may also educate and teach society during disasters (Sadiq, 2022). VR helps preserve human identity and history (Jadhav et al, 2022).…”

Review of Modern Approaches to 3D Digitization of Tangible Cultural Heritage

“…Automation and streamlining of processes can significantly reduce the time and resources required to create 3D models, making digitization available in other places where it would not be possible due to financial burden and excessive complexity. This can also increase the initiative for preservation, awareness, and promotion of cultural heritage over time [25]. Last but not least, we can also focus on virtual reality technologies, where a wide range of uses for digitized cultural heritage are opening up.…”

“…Interactive presentations offer new possibilities for engaging audiences and providing immersive educational experiences. Through virtual reality, users can explore the cultural heritage and historical artifacts in a way that might not normally be possible in the physical world due to the fragility, rarity, or even non-existent ability to see the object [25,26]. By using these technologies, memory institutions can create interactive experiences for people with different abilities and requirements.…”
