From the showcase to your screen
“To je moj pjat” is a hybrid exhibition by the Archaeological Museum Zadar, opened at the Museum of Nin Antiquities on June 6, 2025. It brings together physical pottery in showcases and highly detailed 3D digital replicas accessible via web and augmented reality.
The museum provided 32 3D-scanned pottery models in 5 thematic categories. Our task was to turn these complex assets into interactive experiences that run smoothly on any phone – without losing the quality and integrity of the original artefacts.
- Enable mobile-friendly, interactive 3D viewing and AR projection of scanned pottery
- Provide educational annotations that highlight engraved symbols and drawings
- Bridge physical and digital museum experiences using QR codes
- Present the artefacts in a visually rich yet technically efficient way
