“…Nowadays, relevant archaeological studies are strictly related to the use of state-of-art 3D acquisition technologies, and consequently, they cannot be conducted without the use of 3D archaeological models. The possible output arising from them are manifold: they can be developed in several levels of detail and/or representation scales from GIS to 3D Cognitive-Information System through a semantic modelling ; moreover, applying VR techniques allows simulating and storytelling about architectural monuments, starting from existing data (Pietroni, et al, 2015). Several examples demonstrate excellent results, obtained implementing realitybased 3D models: among the others, the 3D GIS Information System for Pompei and the project about Etruscan tombs (Remondino, 2011).…”

Commission VI, WG VI/4KEY WORDS: Point cloud processing, virtual anastylosis, augmented reality, roman archaeology, Vitruvius ABSTRACT:The exploitation of high quality 3D models for dissemination of archaeological heritage is currently an investigated topic, although Mobile Augmented Reality platforms for historical architecture are not available, allowing to develop low-cost pipelines for effective contents. The paper presents a virtual anastylosis, starting from historical sources and from 3D model based on TLS survey. Several efforts and outputs in augmented or immersive environments, exploiting this reconstruction, are discussed. The work demonstrates the feasibility of a 3D reconstruction approach for complex architectural shapes starting from point clouds and its AR/VR exploitation, allowing the superimposition with archaeological evidences. Major contributions consist in the presentation and the discussion of a pipeline starting from the virtual model, to its simplification showing several outcomes, comparing also the supported data qualities and advantages/disadvantages due to MAR and VR limitations.

“…Maybe if this game was developed as a VR game for HMD, the users could have better immersion experience. Besides games, actors in VEs are also used in digitalization of cultural heritage as in Livia's Villa Reloaded [5]. In this project, actors are telling the story in the 3D reconstruction of the Livia's Villa.…”

Virtual Reality (VR) storytelling enhances the immersion of users into virtual environments (VE). Its use in virtual cultural heritage presentations helps the revival of the genius loci (the spirit of the place) of cultural monuments. This paper aims to show that the use of actors in VR storytelling adds to the quality of user experience and improves the edutainment value of virtual cultural heritage applications. We will describe the Baiae dry visit application which takes us to a time travel in the city considered by the Roman elite as "Little Rome (Pusilla Roma)" and presently is only partially preserved under the sea.
