Mapping Current Trends on Gamification of Cultural Heritage

Using past material and spiritual remains, cultural heritage examines communities’ identity formation across time. Cultural heritage requires public and private institutions to care about its restoration, maintenance, conservation, and promotion. Through a bibliometric perspective, this study has analyzed, quantified, and mapped the scientific production of the fourth industrial revolution applied to heritage studies from 2016 to 2021 in the Scopus and Web of Science databases. Biblioshiny software from RStudio was employed to categorize and evaluate the contribution of authors, countries, institutions, and journals. In addition, VOSviewer was used to visualize their collaboration networks. As a main result, we found that augmented reality and remote sensing represent the research hotspot concerning heritage studies. Those techniques have become common in archaeology, as well as museums, leading to an increase in their activity. Perhaps, more recent tools, such as machine learning and deep learning, will provide future pathways in cultural heritage from data collected in social networks. This bibliometric analysis, therefore, provides an updated perspective of the implementations of technologies from industry 4.0 in heritage science as a possible guideline for future worldwide research.

Material science is a broad discipline focused on subjects such as metals, ceramics, polymers, electronics, and composite materials. Each of these fields covers areas associated with designing, synthesizing, and manufacturing, materials. These are tasks in which the use of technology may constitute paramount importance, reducing cost and time to develop new materials and substituting try-and-error standard procedures. This study aimed to analyze, quantify and map the scientific production of research on the fourth industrial revolution linked to material science studies in Scopus and Web of Science databases from 2017 to 2021. For this bibliometric analysis, the Biblioshiny software from RStudio was employed to categorize and evaluate the contribution of authors, countries, institutions, and journals. VOSviewer was used to visualize their collaboration networks. As a result, we found that artificial intelligence represents a hotspot technology used in material science, which has become usual in molecular simulations and manufacturing industries. Recent studies aim to provide possible avenues in the discovery and design of new high-entropy alloys as well as to detect and classify corrosion in the industrial sector. This bibliometric analysis releases an updated perspective on the implementations of technologies in material science as a possible guideline for future worldwide research.

“…It has already been proved to be useful to enhance skills and competences in a variety of domains such as marketing, industry training and entertainment. Certainly also cultural heritage can benefit from a gamification approach which represents an opportunity to engage visitors to museums content through the design of more entertaining, social and challenging digital learning scenarios [2,4,6,8], to help museums to move from the traditional "look and do not touch" toward a "play and interact" approach. In fact, it has been observed that the availability of tools like gamified e-guides to visitors contributes to the sustainability of museums [1].…”

In this demo we present two applications designed for the cultural heritage domain that exploit gamification techniques in order to improve fruition and learning of museum artworks. The two applications encourage users to replicate the poses and facial expressions of characters from paintings or statues, to help museum visitors make connections with works of art. Both applications challenge the user to fulfill a task in a funny way and provide the user with a visual report of the his/her experience that can be shared on social media, improving the engagement of the museums, and providing information on the artworks replicated in the challenge.
