Abstract :
The paper discusses problems of Mixed Reality (MR) and its application to the preservation of cultural heritage. It presents the idea and initial stages of the project of the cost-effective Mixed Reality reconstruction of a historic musical instrument (clavichord), using immersive imaging. A simple prototype is based on mixing the webcam view with the virtual keyboard image and playing the appropriate sound after “striking” a key.
