Cultural Heritage Interactive Media Environment for Reality Augmentation (CHIMERA)

This paper describes the initial concepts and ideas of the CHIMERA project. We first present the historical site, then describe the communication challenge in relation to a projected popular audience. To meet this communication challenge, we explore promising matured technologies, present an overview of our preliminary findings, then describe our vision for an interactive and engaging museum based on an augmented reality network. In the conclusion, we list our immediate initiative and the scientific goals of the project.
