Digital Applications in Cultural Heritage Preservation and Dissemination

Digital resources, as an effective means of digital storage, can be preserved for a long time. On the one hand, it provides high-quality data sources for implementing salvage protection measures for intangible cultural heritage. On the other hand, it can compensate for the problems of resource heterogeneity, a single storage method, and currently undefined protection level and priority in the rescue protection of intangible cultural heritage. Given the complexity of intangible cultural heritage and the dynamism of its cultural space, ensuring the long-term preservation, visibility, and readability of digital images is a challenge that image recorders must address. In the process of digitizing dynamic cultural heritage, it is necessary to restore and reproduce the original ecological behavior of intangible cultural heritage. This article explores how digital imaging can be applied to the protection of intangible cultural heritage. By integrating virtual reality technology with computer graphics, multimedia, digital animation, network communication, and cloud storage services, real scenes and virtual objects can be superimposed in real time, thereby enabling innovation by inheriting and developing intangible cultural heritage solutions.
