Natural interaction at Mont’Alfonso, Lucca

The fortress of Mont’Alfonso was built at the end of the 16th century and after being abandoned for decades it was recently submitted to a complete restoration. A multimedia environment, made of large projections, was developed by our research centre in one of the buildings inside the fortress.

An interactive projection is triggered by a computer vision system: the signal is sent to a video server which activates a video signal in the zone where motion is detected.
