A Study On Representing Cultural Heritage By Virtual and Augmented Reality

This study gives an overview of education, preservation and virtual learning of cultural heritage through virtual and augmented learning. Works that have been done on cultural heritage have a responsibility of replicating, visualizing and representing a virtual environment as if they were in a real world through the presentation of the virtual reality. The explains that cultural heritage is an important accept when it comes to learning and learning is not based on what the developer of the system wants but what the user is looking for. However, even if most virtual and augmented environment is done from what the developer thinks is appropriate still it offers learning environment and the preservation of the culture is still done (Central European University, 2017). This is because learning can take place to advance technology that the virtual and augmented reality offers to mean that individual who can do reach the cultural environment can still have the learning experience. It is also important to identify the need for the users of the system on what exactly they would like to learn and see for the creation of the virtual environment to be said it is successful to offer learning environment. Technology is what has facilitated the use of the virtual and augmented reality but this also has posted a challenge since not all users can assess the advanced technology. The users of the virtual environment would also like to have an opportunity of interacting with the objects in the virtual environment which still is a challenge to the developers of the system. The study gives evidence that the virtual and augmented environment offers educational, learning and preservation opportunity for culture.
