iPhotoCult
Intelligent Advanced Photonics Tools for Remote and/or on-site Monitoring of Cultural Heritage Monuments and Artefacts

The IphotoCult project is funded under the European Union Framework Program for Research and Innovation (Horizon Europe), call Horizon-CL-2-2023-HERITAGE-01-01, which promotes the development of advanced technologies for remote monitoring of heritage monuments and artefacts.

The project carried out by the CCR, coordinated by the prestigious Foundation for Research and Technology Hellas (FORTH) in Heraklion (Crete, Greece) together with partners belonging to Universities, Conservation Centers and Museums, Research and Innovation Institutes, Industries belonging to 6 European countries (in Italy in collaboration with CNR-IFAC in Florence and the Consortium of Royal Savoy Residences in Piedmont), aims to design, develop and validate innovative, environmentally sustainable solutions for the preservation of cultural heritage.

Specifically, the CCR, during the three and a half years of the project's implementation, will validate scientific diagnostic tools and methodologies developed by the technological partners developing photonic analytical techniques, will test protocols for the conservation monitoring of the movable and immovable, indoor and outdoor heritage of the Reggia di Venaria and will contribute to the development of a user-friendly Cloud-based Software Service Platform iSSP platform for data processing, management and visualisation, AI supported.
