The application was designed for use via the web using common browsers and operating systems, as well as through mobile devices, thanks to the dedicated “De Fornaris Virtual Museum” app, downloadable from the Apple Store and Google Play.
A backend system was created for the dynamic and multilingual management of all the informative text content.
An infrastructure based on Amazon Web Services (AWS) was configured to ensure maximum scalability of web versions in the event of high user traffic.
The virtual museum was created by leveraging the potential offered by the Unity3D development engine.
Unity3D is a flexible and powerful development framework, designed for the production of interactive experiences based on 2D/3D digital content. Thanks to a versatile build engine, the tool makes it possible to develop an experience that can be made available on different platforms: web, mobile devices (such as smartphones and tablets) and Virtual Reality viewers.
As is the case within a film set, with Unity3D it is possible to set up different scenes, arrange cameras and lights, as well as all the various objects that make up a scene. Through Unity3D it is also possible to manage physics-related interactions, such as the force of gravity or collisions between rigid objects.
