La realidad virtual y sus aplicaciones en el museo mineralógico Magner Turner para su dinamización y potencialización.

Abstract

The objective of this research is the creation of a strategical and museographic plan for the Magner Turner Mineralogical Museum through a deep study of the current museographic tendencies focused on the use of Virtual Reality (VR), and the different immersive and interactive visualization methods according to the museistic pedagogy. In addition, different study cases, such as the most relevant and popular are exposed, in which the elaboration, improvement and execution techniques can be explored; all these techniques are the most traditional used ones when carrying out a project like this. For this project, a mixed methodology was used, this methodology had both, qualitative and quantitative components, thanks to this, we were able to identify a lack of update on the museum scrip, a short and limited use of innovative tools and also the lack of financial support from the competent entities. These are the reasons why it was also proposed a budget for remodelling, equipment and staff, and which entities might be the benefactors for its execution; all of this will allow the cultural tourism growth and the visit from both national and international tourists.
