Based on the technology fusion of information technology to cultural and natural heritage, virtual heritage technology has been emerging within the large-scale direction of virtual reality (VR) based culture technology (CT). Especially, new media technologies, from 3D media technology to virtual reality, are very promising ones expected to satisfy heritage representation such as the naturalness, the sensation of depth, realism and tangibility. Moreover, virtual heritage technology can provide us the virtual exploration of heritage through the virtual reality environment.
This poster demonstration shows the DBMS-based virtual heritage system
in the networked environment. We also introduce the main research topics
for this system, especially, how to create, manage and present virtual
heritages and furthermore how to use computer networks to share virtual
heritages in the networked virtual environment. Our system is based on
eXcelon DBMS and provides the search, navigate and browse 3D virtual heritage
model/contents. The asset database of 3D model/contents is based on XML.
The software is developed on Mandrake 8.0 OS, eXcelon data server (Windows2000),
OPENGL Performer Library. Fig. 1 shows an overview of our system.
