Abstract

This paper discusses the role and influence of virtual reality (VR) technology on historical and cultural inheritance under the background of the digital age. The essential feature of VR is to enhance users’ perceptions and experiences by immersing users in the virtual world. It greatly promotes the democratic text of cultural heritage and describes the advantages of this new technology in preserving and providing new forms of cultural heritage access. The advantages of this emerging technology in preserving and providing new forms of cultural heritage access are also described. This paper will be of interest to scholars and institutions considering the use of VR technologies to support cultural heritage conservation, digital humanities projects or other types of interdisciplinary research.
