BEHIND THE SHAPES, BEYOND THE COLORS
1. Project description
The project will provide the realization of applications and technologies to be installed in the
Basilica of San Pietro in Vincoli, by the introduction of an innovative system of management frameworks and one or more iOS/Android application for the development AR content related to testimonies in the Basilica. In particular: 1) A multimedia guide for visiting the Basilica; 2) The multilingual translation of the Latin epigraphic texts which can be visually read by a mobile device on the epigraphs themselves; 3) The viewing of reconstruction of the inside of the Basilica in the late Middle Ages, through the mobile device coupled to a “time frames”; 4) A “Virtual class” section dedicated to scientific studies on exposed works; 5) Archaeological holograms. The testimonies in Basilica can be used through multimedia information, which can be freely activated or automatic simultaneous activation (position, image, work) on user owned moveable device, so as to trigger discovery. The information will not be “told” as in an usually audio-guide but will be narrated as “answer to the visitors request”. He will take an active role in a route of visit that will be a search and discovery path.
