CAnTi
CAnTi aims at extending and enriching preservation work in the archaeological site of the Acropolis of Tiryns and includes conservation and restoration procedures for monuments, documentation of these procedures through three-dimensional representation, documentation of previous interventions, and the production of virtual and augmented reality interactive, educational applications that will project and spatiotemporally visualize how maintenance, restoration and protection was applied on the monuments and will be implemented in the form of two Open Labs that will operate both in the archaeological site and in the facilities of the Nafplio Archaeological Museum.
The proposed project is designed to meet the above objectives by designing and implementing an augmented reality application that digitally complements the form of historical and cultural monuments that have suffered significant damage and therefore have altered their features with 3D graphics representing the missing monuments structures.

Mansion AR tX
The proposed project concerns the creation of an innovative platform that will provide digital services and tour tools in cultural spaces (mansions) of the wider area of the Municipality of Σελίδα 4 από 35 Kifissia, incorporating cutting-edge technologies such as Augmented Reality, 3D architectural diagrams and personalised tours, with the ultimate goal of creating new forms of interactive cultural experience. The object of the project is the creation of an innovative augmented reality platform, accessible from portable and fixed devices (smartphones, tablets, computers, etc.), through which the visitor will be able to browse the urban fabric under the guidance of a digital map, and to be guided to the mansions of Kifissia with the help of three-dimensional architectural diagrams that will provide condensed architectural information (history, typology, form, construction), rendered in an intelligible way.

Street Lines
Tourism has emerged as one of the country’s most important financial sectors, displaying significant growth potential each year. For better exploiting this growth and further maintaining the observed growth rates, it is necessary to interconnect the touristic product/content with the actual interests of the expected and potential tourists. STREET-LINES project will focus on this need, aiming to develop a system that will collect information from open tourism-based platforms and online social networks used by the visitors, and it will generate in an automated manner recommendations for strategic planning of cultural events, designing proper support of the emerging tourist destinations, etc.
More specifically, the STREET-LINES project will crawl publicly available sites containing tourism-relevant content, e.g., websites of Municipalities/Prefectures, and online social media aiming to collect as many as possible open data relevant with planned events, provided from the organizers and relevant to the interests of users that are considered potential visitors.

ePalm
Responding to the growing demand of museum visitors for a personalized digital tour experience, especially in the midst of the recent Covid-2019 pandemic, the v-PalM project aims to develop a platform for offering virtual guidance and education services at the Museum of Paleontology and Geology that is hosted at the National Kapodistrian University of Athens. The development of the platform will be based on innovative information and communication technologies (ICT), including conversational agents, machine learning (e.g., for text processing), personalized recommenders, development of mobile applications taking advantage of gamification techniques and content digitization using 3D scanning devices. The v-PalM solution will create a Virtual Museum offering to visitors user-friendly access to the available material, so that the interested people, depending on their interests, will be able to enjoy the virtual tour services, including educational and entertainment services for the museum, focusing on cases where physical access is not possible. The solution will be also applicable within the museum, contributing to the upgraded offering of traditional services based on a physical visit in the museum.
