Promoting Wuxi Online Offline Communication Information Technology Co.Ltd(300959) integration can effectively enhance the dissemination of culture. Based on AR and VR technologies, the National Museum of China has carefully created the cloud exhibition of the road to rejuvenation, using virtual exhibition hall technology to reproduce historical scenes, extend viewing space and expand the connotation of cultural relics. Through the cloud exhibition, the audience can view the text, pictures and multimedia images of the exhibits.
The 14th five year plan for cultural and tourism development proposes to accelerate information construction, promote the digital, networked and intelligent development of culture and tourism, and promote the application of 5g, artificial intelligence, Internet of things, big data and cloud computing in the field of culture and tourism.
Experts said that we should vigorously develop cloud exhibition, cloud reading and cloud audio-visual, and promote public cultural services to the “cloud” and “fingertips”. Enrich public digital cultural resources and promote the integration of relevant cultural resources into the national cultural big data system. At the same time, strengthen the docking and cooperation between public cultural institutions and digital cultural enterprises, and broaden the application scenarios and communication channels of digital cultural services.
Technology helps create tourism business cards
The combination of culture and tourism industry and science and technology is becoming closer and closer, opening up a broader development space.

With the empowerment of science and technology, the traditional culture and tourism industry has accelerated iterative innovation. For example, with the theme of “ancient Chinese civilization, good scenery of Shanxi”, Shanxi culture and tourism digital experience Museum allows tourists to study Chinese civilization through VR, AR, somatosensory interaction and other surreal experiences. The museum creates a unique perspective with digital technology, and presents the cultural tourism resources of Shanxi brilliantly in combination with the application of artificial intelligence, mixed reality, big data, holographic imaging, motion capture and other technologies. Tourists immerse themselves in it and have a panoramic view of the magnificent mountains and rivers.
At present, 5g technology has been applied to the construction of digital platform of tourism venues, resource integration, service application and so on. In China (Hainan) Nanhai Museum, visitors can enjoy the sunrise and sunset of the island through 5g + VR live broadcast. It is understood that the 5g innovation projects of the museum include 5g + VR panoramic live broadcast, 5g + Ar cultural relics restoration assistant, 5g + AI travel notes assistant, 5g + passenger flow statistical analysis, 5g + intelligent security, etc. the intelligent level in the fields of security, management and service has been significantly improved.
Li Quanmin, director of the information center of Henan Provincial Department of culture and tourism, proposed that we should grasp the new trend of cultural and tourism development and speed up the digital transformation. Through the Internet, big data and artificial intelligence technology, develop distinctive products, innovate popular resources, revitalize popular resources, and effectively promote the integration and interoperability of the whole cultural and tourism industry chain. For example, insight prediction and decision analysis based on big data can help to realize the accuracy of tourism management services.
“We should strengthen the construction of tourism information infrastructure, deepen the” Internet plus tourism “, and accelerate the development of Intelligent Tourism characterized by digitalization, networking and intellectualization. Insiders suggested that we should speed up the construction of smart tourism related standards, promote the normalization of reservation, peak staggering and limit, and build scenic spot monitoring facilities and big data platform. Guided by improving convenience and service experience, promote the innovation of smart tourism public service model. Cultivate cloud tourism and cloud live broadcasting, develop online digital experience products, and encourage the development of new consumption models such as customization, experience, intelligence and interaction.

To boost cultural and tourism consumption, digitization is an irreversible development trend. With the favorable policies and the east wind of the Internet era, cultural and creative products have ushered in a golden age of development. The Ministry of culture and tourism and other eight departments recently jointly issued several measures on further promoting the development of cultural and creative products of cultural relics units, proposed to build a display, promotion and trading platform, and encouraged the establishment of platforms for product development, marketing and promotion, copyright trading and so on for the whole society.
