EUreka3D-XR is the continuation project of EUreka3D, funded by the Digital Europe Programme of the European Union, to develop innovative re-use scenarios and tools that enable the creation of extended reality (XR) applications, through expanding the features and services offered to cultural heritage institutions after being developed and tested in the filed of EUreka3D project.
The objectives of the project include the offer of transformating cultural contents such 2D, 3D, video, texts, maps, stories into extended reality scenarios and to deliver said scenarios to the common European data space for cultural heritage. EUreka3D-XR will deliver 5 open source digital tools that include online services and mobile apps to support innovative reuse and exploitation of cultural 3D resources in various settings, including various cultural heritage institutions. EUreka3D-XR will also promote the re-use of digitalised cultural heritage in different domains such as education, tourism research and preservation.
Eureka3D-XR will handle three showcase scenarios, which will be available in the Data Space as contents and documentation:
- The virtual visualisation of the middle-ages walls of the city of Girona
- The XR narrative of excavations in process in the Bibracte archaeological site
- The creation of a new life of Saint Neophytos Englystra in Cyprus in the virtual space
EUreka3D-XR kickoff event will take place in February at Museo della Grafica, Pisa (Italy).
