La realidad aumentada (RA) y su aplicación en la Iglesia de Santo Domingo

Abstract

Abstract: This research focuses on analyzing the potential of Augmented Reality (AR) as a tool for the conservation of architectural heritage, using the Santo Domingo de Guzmán Church, located in the city of Loja, Ecuador, as a case study. To ensure the efficient use of AR in this situation, a new methodology has been developed based on current technological tools, providing users with an innovative experience in gaining knowledge of local heritage. Likewise, detailed plans and thematic tables have been developed cataloging the works of art and sculptures in the church. This ensures the preservation of this information and guarantees its dissemination and easy access for future generations. In this way, the aim is to foster appreciation and understanding of the historical, artistic, religious, and architectural legacy that the Church of Santo Domingo de Guzmán represents for the city of Loja.
