Abstract
Integrating virtual and augmented reality (VR-AR) with Web technology can pave the way for innovative experiences that enable users to immerse themselves in digital worlds comprising interactive virtual objects (IVO) and responsive content. The convergence of 3D drawing, modelling, virtual reality (VR), and cloud sharing can serve as a catalyst for knowledge transmission and facilitate the creation of immersive experiences that epitomise the complexity of built heritage. To this end, virtual-visual storytelling (VVS) has been developed for a research case study to cater to diverse user groups ranging from professionals to virtual tourists. The VVS framework addresses the challenges of interactivity, immersion, and VR accessibility, aiming to captivate the audience through an emotionally evocative WebVR experience that can revolutionise heritage representation.
