Abstract

The digital heritage display breaks through the limitations of exhibition space, cultural relic vulnerability, and supported by the integration of techniques such as computer animation, AR, VR and others. In order to better achieve the effective dissemination of knowledge and culture, digital construction of cultural heritage museum focus on the interactive design of the exhibition items. The Discovering the Hall of Mental Cultivation: A Digital Experience at the Beijing Duanmen Digital Museum is a famous digital exhibition of cultural heritage in China, using touch-controlled interaction, augmented reality, virtual reality, simulation, and motion capture, which maximize technical and artistic levels. Based on the research and scholars' experience in the field of digital cultural heritage and interactive design, the digital presentation and interaction of touchscreens, AR and VR in this digital exhibition is reviewed. Digital presentation and human-computer interaction such as technical concepts, interactive forms, operational details, characteristics, and advantages are discussed. In addition, the paper explores how the interaction of cultural heritage narrates the distance between the audience and historical relics. Finally, considering the challenging factors and future trends in the field of digital cultural heritage.
