A dynamic web-based 3D virtual museum framework based on open data

Continuous developments in the web and computer technologies along with an increasing availability of game engines contribute to an expansion of techniques that bridge culture and education with gaming. In addition, open linked data technologies pave the way towards the semantic web of the future by exploiting the abundance in data availability. In this work we present an innovative and content-dynamic web-based framework, which relies and exploits the rich content of distributed web cultural resources and supports the creation of custom virtual exhibitions for cultural and educational purposes based on gaming technologies.
