Partners:
- University of Pardubice - Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Czech Republic

The aim of the project was to support the activation and education of students and the public, especially tourism participants (in the areas of cultural monuments) through geosocial networks using the principles of gamification, and in this area also the sharing of experience between the partner universities and the destination company, which has the competence to directly help destination management to influence tourist destinations and target public relations with the public. For this purpose, the project has created a publicly available application with a modern form of augmented reality, which will enable the general public to present local information about selected cultural monuments or sites in an engaging, activating and interactive way. The Faculty of Restoration was mainly involved in tracking down, analysing and compiling available background materials necessary for the creation of 3D models of selected cultural monuments.
The application developed within the project is freely available at:
