Abstract

With the development of virtual reality (VR) technology, many museums have begun to apply this technology to the exhibition of cultural relics to disseminate traditional culture. However, at present, the application of VR technology in major museums has different modes, and there are problems such as “authenticity conflict” and “wearing discomfort” in the application process. This paper will focus on the current situation of museums' application of VR technology to disseminate culture, take the literature analysis method and case study method to analyze the mode of museums' application of VR technology and its impact on the dissemination of traditional culture. It is found that the immersion, interactivity, and telepresence of VR technology also promote the effect of museums in disseminating traditional culture; the more realistic the design of the virtual scene, the more the narrative tends to be user-driven, and the more concise the interaction mode, the more the museum attracts users to come to experience it, and the effect of disseminating traditional culture is better. This paper hopes that museums will continue to develop these advantages, and at the same time, they can combine the “meta-universe” and AIGC with VR technology in the future to disseminate traditional culture.
