LASER SCANNER TECHNOLOGY, GROUND-PENETRATING RADAR and AUGMENTED REALITY for the SURVEY and RECOVERY of ARTISTIC, ARCHAEOLOGICAL and CULTURAL HERITAGE

Abstract

In this study, using technologies such as laser scanner and GPR it was desired to see their potential in the cultural heritage. Also with regard to the processing part we are compared the results obtained by the various commercial software and algorithms developed and implemented in Matlab. Moreover, Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality allow integrating the real world with historical-artistic information, laser scanners and georadar (GPR) data and virtual objects, virtually enriching it with multimedia elements, graphic and textual information accessible through smartphones and tablets.
