Seeing the Past with Computers: Experiments with Augmented Reality and Computer Vision for History. Kee, K., editor University of Michigan Press. 🏷️ /unread、Digital Projects、History:Historical Methods and Theory、Media Studies:New Media
abstract   bibtex   
Recent developments in computer technology are providing historians with new ways to see—and seek to hear, touch, or smell—traces of the past. Place-based augmented reality applications are an increasingly common feature at heritage sites and museums, allowing historians to create immersive, multifaceted learning experiences. Now that computer vision can be directed at the past, research involving thousands of images can recreate lost or destroyed objects or environments, and discern patterns in vast datasets that could not be perceived by the naked eye. Seeing the Past with Computers is a collection of twelve thought-pieces on the current and potential uses of augmented reality and computer vision in historical research, teaching, and presentation. The experts gathered here reflect upon their experiences working with new technologies, share their ideas for best practices, and assess the implications of—and imagine future possibilities for—new methods of historical study. Among the experimental topics they explore are the use of augmented reality that empowers students to challenge the presentation of historical material in their textbooks; the application of seeing computers to unlock unusual cultural knowledge, such as the secrets of vaudevillian stage magic; hacking facial recognition technology to reveal victims of racism in a century-old Australian archive; and rebuilding the soundscape of an Iron Age village with aural augmented reality. This volume is a valuable resource for scholars and students of history and the digital humanities more broadly. It will inspire them to apply innovative methods to open new paths for conducting and sharing their own research. 【摘要翻译】计算机技术的最新发展为历史学家提供了观看–并寻求听觉、触觉或嗅觉–过去痕迹的新方法。基于场所的增强现实应用在遗产地和博物馆中越来越常见,使历史学家能够创造身临其境的多方面学习体验。现在,计算机视觉可以直接针对过去,涉及成千上万张图像的研究可以重现丢失或毁坏的物品或环境,并在庞大的数据集中发现肉眼无法感知的模式。 用计算机看过去》收集了十二篇关于增强现实和计算机视觉在历史研究、教学和展示中的当前和潜在用途的思考文章。这里汇集的专家们反思了他们使用新技术的经验,分享了他们对最佳实践的想法,并评估了新的历史研究方法的影响和想象了其未来的可能性。他们探讨的实验性课题包括:使用增强现实技术,让学生有能力挑战教科书中的史料表述;应用视觉计算机来揭示非同寻常的文化知识,如杂耍舞台魔术的秘密;利用黑客面部识别技术揭示澳大利亚百年档案中的种族主义受害者;以及利用听觉增强现实技术重建铁器时代村庄的声景。 这本书是历史和数字人文学科学者和学生的宝贵资源。它将激励他们应用创新方法,为开展和分享自己的研究开辟新的道路。
