Sustainability Through Research & Innovation

The SEIKILO Museum team has participated in and successfully implemented national and EU-funded research projects over the past years. We have a dedicated RDI team with a long experience collaborating with research institutes and universities such as the International Hellenic University, Centre for Research & Technology Hellas, and the University of British Columbia (Canada). 

Our fields of interest are culture, history, music, 3d technologies, VR & AR technologies, audio engineering, sustainable tourism, and twin (digital & eco-friendly) transition.

Reconstructing ancient and early musical instruments with 3d technologies

SEIKILO Museum was co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) of the European Union under the Action “Investment Plans of Innovation” (Operational Program “Central Macedonia 2014-2020”).

Research Project Title: Implementation of the latest 3d technologies (such as 3d scanning and 3d printing) for reconstructing ancient and early musical instruments, with the use of rapid prototyping and reverse engineering methods. Furthermore, a bilingual state-of-the-art interactive educational material (Greek and English) will be developed for mobile devices (smartphones/tablets with Android and iOS), using Augmented and Virtual Reality technology, 3d representation of the musical instruments, modern recordings of ancient musical pieces that survive to this day, along with educational videos (including teaching ancient musical instruments).

Research Keywords: early musical instruments, culture, 3d scanning, 3d design, Augmented Reality, lutherie.
