Implementation of Augmented Reality Application and Computer Graphics: The Case of the Stolen Paintings

This article addresses the issue of reconstructing digital paintings and making them visible with the use of augmented reality (AR) mobile application. It contributes through raising awareness of stolen heritage due to a necessity for ensuring digital copies and better safety for works of art, paintings, historical objects, etc. This paper presents a novel method for bringing the lost museum belongings back to public eyes using AR in simple and intuitive way. The implementation of the whole process has a methodological approach which is introduced in three phases. First one consists of painting reconstruction, second relies on marker selection, while third one is based on creating android based AR app itself. The method could be use broadly and it is not restricted only to paintings. The tests of AR and physical exhibition of digitalized paintings (39 of them) was held in Ilok Town Museum. The results of this work shows that the AR should be broadly used not only for audio guidance or for additional information, but moreover for raising awareness of the need for digitalization of the arts and heritage in general.
