Ricostruzione virtuale delle crociere dell'aula della chiesa di San Domenico a Cagliari (XVI sec.)
2016
Il saggio affronta la ricostruzione virtuale delle crociere dell’aula della chiesa di San Domenico a Cagliari, distrutta nel 1943 dai bombardamenti alleati che colpirono la città. La ricostruzione virtuale, combinando gli strumenti dell’indagine storica e della rappresentazione digitale, è stata impiegata per comprendere il processo costruttivo della copertura dell’aula. Lo studio ha inoltre permesso di elaborare una più corretta interpretazione dei dettagli linguistici e delle caratteristiche costruttive delle crociere, consentendo di elaborare nuove ipotesi sulla fabbrica, attraverso la comparazione con architetture coeve. This paper focuses on the 3D virtual reconstruction of the star-sh…
The Cathedral of Palermo : from survey to historic interpretation
2013
The Cathedral of Palermo was built by the Norman Kings, in the place where a mosque had been erected by the muslim governors of Sicily. The church has many features recalling the norman churches in northern France and in England, whilst some others are due to the contamination of norman, muslim and byzantine culture, that is peculiar of the so-called “arab-norman” architecture of medieval Sicily. In the XVIth century the Cathedral has been enriched by additions that did not affect its medieval features: a portico and a sacristy on the southern front, a sculptural decoration in the main apse. It was at the end of the XVIIIth century that the church underwent huge and extensive transformation…
Virtual Museum Net
2006
A project named ”Virtual Museum Net of Magna Graecia” is presented, whose objective is to provide an unitary image of the archaeological heritage of Calabria (a Southern Italian region), through Computer Technology, Multimedia Designing and Virtual Reconstructions. The project aims to encourage the technological transfer of the most advanced researches in the exploitation and conservation sector of the Cultural Heritage. The ”Virtual Museum Net of Magna Graecia” project is included in the context of Knowledge Media Design for Museums. This project links the museum scenery and multimedia, in order to use technology as system of representation.
Surveying, Analysis and 3D Modeling in Archaeological Virtual Reconstruction. The inner colonnade of the naos of Temple G of Selinunte.
2012
This paper is focused on the virtual reconstruction of a portion of the naos of Temple G of Selinunte, as a case study for the definition of a method of virtual anastylosis and reconstruction of collapsed colonnades in archaeological contexts. Reconstruction is based on the combination of historical research, archaeological analysis, digital surveying, image-based modeling and laser scanning methods. The complexity of the ruins of the temple suggested a thorough archaeological analysis of the fragments of the inner colonnade of the naos. This analysis made it possible to identify reference surfaces and protective or sacrificial surfaces. The study of these surfaces, together with the dimens…
The Virtual Reconstruction of the Aesculapius and Hygeia Statues from the Sanctuary of Isis in Lilybaeum: Methods and Tools for Ancient Sculptures’ E…
2022
Thanks to recent technological developments in 3D surveys, computer graphics and virtual reality, new scenarios have been opened for the documentation and enhancement of ancient sculptures. When not totally preserved, sculptures can be digitally reproduced, modified and visualized to simulate their physical or virtual reconstruction in a non-invasive way for specialists or for dissemination aims. The virtual sculptural reconstruction process starts usually from the 3D survey of real fragments, and then continues by integrating missing parts with 3D modelling techniques by means of source evaluation. Along with primary data sources (reality-based model), secondary data sources (photos, drawi…
The Nymphaeum of the Tritons at Hierapolis of Phrygia (Turkey) from excavations to 3D-virtual reconstruction: an example of integrated methods in the…
2011
The Nymphaeum of the Tritons at Hierapolis of Phrygia is a monumental fountain of the Roman period with an imposing marble façade. Within the activities of the Italian Archaeological Mission the Nymphaeum is currently being studied by a team from the University of Messina with the goal of understanding its original layout and its history. The starting point of the study is the wealth of data provided by stratigraphic excavation of the building, particularly by the extensive archaeological deposits formed by the blocks of the façade collapsed into the pool of the fountain following an earthquake in the 7th century AD. The need to process a large amount of data required the creation of a comp…
Rilievo e ricostruzione virtuale del Ponte Sud di Hierapolis di Frigia (Turchia)
2015
[ES] El artículo se refiere al levantamiento topográfico y la reconstrucción en 3D de un puente-acueducto romano situado inmediatamente al sur de Hierápolis, en Frigia (suroeste de Turquía), a lo largo del antiguo camino dirigido a Colosas, en el interior de Anatolia. Actualmente sólo se conservan su pilar sur y escasos restos del pilar norte. Se encuentra en una situación muy difícil, en el interior de un valle estrecho y profundo, y nunca se ha estudiado antes. Durante la campaña de trabajo de campo de 2011 de la Misión Arqueológica Italiana, fue examinado con un diferencial de alta precisión del sistema GPS (para la documentación del plan y su posicionamiento en el mapa digital arqueológ…
<em>L’entramès de Mestre Vicent</em>: resplandor de la autoridad del predicador
2019
El presente artículo aborda múltiples aspectos, algunos inéditos, referentes a l’entramès de Mestre Vicent. Entre los objetivos del estudio descuella la reconstrucción virtual y documentada de aquel carro que, quizá albergando la primera representación de Vicent Ferrer, desfiló en Valencia a finales de 1414 con ocasión de la entrada real de Fernando I. Otras cuestiones de especial relevancia atañen a la autoría del programa iconográfico y al proselitismo que denotaba aquella estructura, cuyos máximos beneficiarios fueron el Trastámara y la propia ciudad. Metodológicamente, se subraya la complejidad que entraña ceñir la interpretación del entremés amparada exclusivamente en la literatura, má…
Un'ipotesi per la cattedrale di Iglesias
2015
This article focuses on the 3D virtual reconstruction of the first restoration project of the cathedral of San Maria in Iglesias (first half of 16th century). A complex work of renovation of the old medieval temple, which likely was meant to radically transform the presbytery of the church and to replace the previous timber roof truss of the nave with a simple ribbed vaults, as several clues seem to suggest. In the absence of archival data, the virtual reconstruction allowed to verify some hypotheses originated from the observation of material traces, ascribable to the construction phase of the building here analysed. Indirect proofs seem to suggest that a collapse, happened in an unspecifi…
AR METHODS FOR THE VISUALIZATION OF THE LOST MARBLE “TRIBUNA” IN THE MAIN APSE OF THE CATHEDRAL OF PALERMO
2022
Abstract. In recent years research works have shown that augmented reality tools can offer effective support for the dissemination of architectural heritage, when integrated into the information data extracted with surveying and representation tools and further data from other sources, e.g., history.The development and permanent updating of software platforms dedicated to augmented reality, i.e., Apple's ARKit and Google's ARCore, as well as the introduction of new features, offer today affordable support for the development of AR solutions.Some operational difficulties are due to the rapid and constant evolution of the technologies; the available solutions can be compared to prototypes and…
