Oltre la vista: il ruolo del gruppo di Disegno e Metodi dell’Ingegneria Industriale nel settore dei Beni Culturali

  • Rocco Furferi

The chapter “Beyond Sight: The Role of the Drawing and Industrial Engineering Methods Group in the Cultural Heritage Sector” describes research and technology transfer activities devoted to the protection, enhancement, and accessibility of cultural heritage. Through 3D digitization, geometric modeling, reverse engineering, and virtual reality, the group develops innovative tools for documentation, analysis, and conservation, promoting accessibility, inclusion, and new forms of interaction between technology, culture, and the local community.
