Kültürel mirasa yönelik mobil artırılmış gerçeklik uygulaması geliştirilmesi.

The aim of the study was to investigate and implement an augmented reality-based platform and appropriate digital content for personalized non-formal and free learning of architectural and cultural heritage, which has lost its physical or structural integrity. It was aimed to raise awareness about cultural heritage and its appreciation by future generations. Developing a digital memory and making cultural heritage accessible with the help of new technologies were the main concerns of the study. In this respect, a study on a mobile, geolocation-based augmented reality application, which have simultaneous localization and mapping function, was conducted. The Temple of Augustus, which is an important archaeological site in Ankara, was chosen as a sample structure for the study. A digital 3D model of the building was prepared. This model was superimposed and aligned with the point cloud produced by the augmented reality platform with the help of photographs taken from the ruins. This overlap served as a marking function, so that even if the angle of the camera used by the application on mobile devices changes or the structure leaves the field of view and re-enters, the digital model placed on the site can be viewed at the right angle, with scaled size and material mapping. In this study, the possibilities of perceiving the geometric and semantic knowledge of the building as a whole, and experiencing that digital content interactively were investigated.
