SPiVAR

The SPIVAR app gives the chance to the visitor to “explore” the basilica of S. Pietro in Vincoli using Augmented Reality

The SPIVAR app gives the chance to the visitor to “explore” the basilica acquiring information on different focal points.

Through the usage of a georeferenced map, the visitor can choose between following casual paths or the evidences’ chronological order. Every evidence available on SPIVAR comes with an audio description and an illustrated multilingual text.

The app also enables to read the translation on the screen of a number of epigraphs both in Italian or English. On mobile device the translation overlays the original graphic form of the Latin epigraph.

A frame on the right side of the transept allows to observe through smartphone or tablet the inside of the basilica with the proportions and the architectural solutions that characterized the church during its oldest phases.
