Virtual Exploration Application of Cultural Heritage for Anyang Yinxu

Based on the available 3D modelling technology, virtual reality technology and multimedia technology, paper introduced a 3D reconstruction and exploration system of Anyang Yinxu - world natural & cultural heritage. The applied techniques are 3D modelling technique based on stereo photo-pairs, virtual display technique based on CA VE, explore technique based on virtual animation, and scene interaction control technique based on VRML nodes. It provides a series of new ideas and methods for archaeology research and virtual exploration.
