The Utilization of Virtual Reality Technology in the Scientific and Technological Protection and Cultural Inheritance of Clarke Porcelain--Taking Clarke Porcelain in the Collection of the City University of Macau as an Example

Virtual Reality (VR) technology heralds a transformative era for the safeguarding and disseminating cultural heritage. This paper examines its application through the lens of the Clark Porcelain collection at the City University of Macau, highlighting VR’s pivotal role in the scientific preservation and cultural transmission of these artifacts. By delving into the ornamental intricacies of Clark Porcelain, we evaluate VR’s effectiveness in protecting and showcasing these treasures. The study employs advanced techniques, including 3D virtual scene modeling, texture mapping, and collision detection, to replicate a museum setting, thus elevating the user’s interactive experience. An audience satisfaction survey indicates positive feedback, with relaxation and aesthetic satisfaction scores averaging 4.65 and 4.53, respectively. Moreover, ANOVA results reveal significant technological acceptance disparities across age groups. The Analysis further underscores VR’s substantial impact on cultural heritage promotion, noting the potential for better integration of Clark Porcelain with contemporary technologies. Virtual reality emerges as a formidable tool in the scientific conservation and cultural legacy of Clark Porcelain, offering fresh insights and technical backing for the modernization of traditional cultural heritage preservation.
