Museum Li-Fi Geolocation: A Wireless Technology for the Fruition and Preservation of Cultural Heritage
Abstract
The archaeological, architectural, historical-artistic, and ethno-anthropological heritage represents a significant wealth for any country. The management, security, and promotion of this heritage are crucial. In this regard, it is important to focus attention on emerging 6G technology. This technology facilitates the interconnection between people and things, enabling the rapid trans-mission of large amounts of data and information. The aim of the research is to facilitate the cataloging and management of artworks by heritage professionals through the utilization of Li-Fi technology. Museum staff should be able to independently update the information associated with each movable or fixed artwork (e.g., wall or ceiling frescoes, tapestries, etc.) with the objective of maintaining up-to-date information on conservation and management. The same technology aims to be used to transmit historical and cultural information related to the museum and its artworks directly to visitors' personal devices (such as tablets and smartphones), based on their location and what they are viewing. Such technology can also be applied to optimize the maintenance of technical elements and installations within the exhibition and to reduce the energy consumption of the display devices.
