Digital Media & Communication
We developed a web based platform to store, distribute and aggregate multimedia content of cultural value.
Approach & Solution
Approach
HyperCute was created from the combination of two research projects focused on media and cultural heritage. The goal was to build a web platform capable of delivering SaaS services to upload, categorize and store individual valuable multimedia contents and, starting from these, to intuitively produce complex narrative aggregations.
Such complex aggregations can also be realized in the form of immersive content based on the hybridization of a 360-degree background (photos or videos) with traditional multimedia content.
Finally, there is the possibility of managing information from real or virtual sensors and integrating within narrative products specific information coming from the physical environment, in real time.

Solution
The platform developed by Engineering Research and Innovation Department allows to store cultural content ensuring the preservation of digital formats and the most relevant metadata according to European standards (European Data Model) and the possibility of distributing such content in compliance with copyright rules through its servers or through the main distribution cloud infrastructures (e.g. Amazon AWS).
It also allows, through intuitive interfaces, to create narrative aggregations of simple content with particular attention to immersive backgrounds that can also be enjoyed through mobile devices and the most common AR / VR devices.
