The purpose is to offer information about the digital innovation of cultural heritage, including various aspects of digital innovation, with the main focus on 3D objects.

Main topics:
-The advantages of investing in cultural heritage tourism
A short presentation of the development of interactive experiences (3D movie, hologram, 3D printing, virtual tours with the 3D objects, interactive table with 3D objects, enriched reality, VR360movie with the 3D objects, VR games, etc.)

-How to prepare a good concept with defined target groups and user experience

-Cooperation of key stakeholders in the process of digitisation and the digitalisation of cultural heritage

-The digitising process: digital capture, point clouds, photogrammetry and laser scanning, data processing, simulated reconstructions on practical case studies of cultural heritage objects.
