Project: virtual historic dublin city
AR Explorer & History Hunters
With the Office of Public Works (IRE), Enterprise Ireland, UCL’s Centre for Advanced Spatial Analysis (CASA), discover studios and content partners in Ireland.
Start: In 2018, Ireland’s Office of Public Works (OPW) in collaboration with Enterprise Ireland, launched a Small Business Innovation Research challenge to create a virtual history of Dublin City. This Great Adventure has been successful in winning two rounds of funding in this open international competition.
Journey: The medieval tower in Dublin Castle was chosen as the test bed location. Using a central theme of People-Places-Things, we’re working with digital and game developers, historians and business planners. The goal is to create a digital experience platform to work across the 100+ heritage sites managed by OPW.
