A framework for digitizing historical pieces for the development of interactive software

The digitalization of museum collections allows to expand the access to cultural heritage through multiple devices and ubiquitously. This paper proposes a framework for the digitalization of heritage collections so they can be displayed in an interactive software. Through the method of short-range photogrammetry and the optimization of 3D models, the products obtained may ensure the correct visualization of the pieces in a wide range of devices, opening the possibilities in diffusion, attraction and entertainment of the Museums and institutions that manage cultural heritage. Two software were developed to try and test the 3D models generated. The results indicate that with the application of this framework, low polygon models with high resolution can be obtained and be visualized on a wide range of devices.
