The Technical Director of Global Digital Heritage, Milos Lukash, plans to recreate the era of Amir Timur and his descendants in virtual reality. The specialist shared this during the Cultural Heritage Week in Tashkent.
"We created 3D models using about 60,000 photographs taken from the ground, drones, and laser scanning. The models turned out as they are. But now, the next phase of our project is the creation of virtual reality. This means that people will be able to walk through the models, visit them, explore them up close, and see every detail with a resolution down to one millimeter. They won't need to travel to hard-to-reach places; they will be able to study all the data easily from their office," said Milos Lukash.
Lukash is preparing his project for the Center for Islamic Civilization in Uzbekistan.
Uzbekistan's Cultural Heritage Week, titled "The Phenomenon of the Eastern Renaissance: States, Religions, Personalities, and Civilizations," is taking place in Tashkent from October 18 to 27. More than 100 foreign scholars and experts are participating. The Week will feature conferences, seminars, forums, exhibitions, and presentations. Among them is the presentation of the megaproject "Center for Islamic Civilization of Uzbekistan," as well as projects aimed at enhancing the exhibits of the CIC museum halls and the innovative museum of Imam Al-Bukhari.
The Center for Islamic Civilization is a project implemented on the initiative of the country's president, Shavkat Mirziyoyev, within the framework of his idea of promoting enlightened Islam as a religion of kindness, peace, and tolerance.
