Because visitors cannot view the grottoes up close, the Longmen Grottoes Academy launched the Cloud Longmen mini-program, which offers immersive online 3D tours. The platform eases the conflict between heritage conservation and public access, while spreading traditional culture through the integration of technology and culture.
Leveraging high-precision digital resources, the Longmen Grottoes Academy has pioneered new approaches for the virtual restoration of damaged statues and the virtual repatriation of dispersed relics. Combining academic research with digital technology, 3D printing and archaeological science, experts can recreate cultural relics in their original form in the digital realm, helping ensure the preservation and transmission of this ancient cultural legacy.
