Research on Intangible cultural heritage education inheritance based on augmented reality technology

The intangible cultural heritage is exposed to the risk of being lost or forgotten forever. As a result, importance should be attached to the protection of intangible cultural heritage. This paper introduces design concepts and working prototypes for augmented reality (AR) applications, which makes users know more about the process of Chinese lanterns. 3D images are overlapped a real environment through AR technology, giving intangible cultural heritage learning more fun. Visitors can experience this app during the lantern festival. Studies show that it is feasible to use AR technology for intangible cultural heritage education, which can transfer knowledge and improve learning interests.
