| Popis | This paper presents a serious game for cultural heritage and in particular for museum environmentsfocusing on the younger generation. The aim of the game is to solve a treasure hunt scenario by collectingmedieval objects that used to be located in and around the Priory Undercroft. Located in the heart of Coventry, UK, the Priory Undercrofts are the remains of Coventry’s original Benedictine monastery, dissolvedby Henry VIII. Initial user testing demonstrated the potentials of serious games for education in museumenvironments. Game has been created using innovative aspects as far as 3D content reconstruction isconcerned as well as educational scenarios. Thus, the main contribution of this paper lies in the direction of accelerating 3D reconstruction by combining computer vision tools and on the educational dimension of thedeveloped game. In addition, artificial intelligence tools are adopted for conducting the plot of the game. |
