What is Alveus XR?
Travel back in time through its material culture in 3D
The best historical 3D models at your fingertips
Alveus XR is the first online repository of historically themed 3D models. We incorporate collections of high-quality scientific virtual reconstructions to facilitate the disclosure of the past, and we enable 3D design professionals to use rigorous historical assets in their reconstructions, video games, or animated films.
Our historical objects (or assets) are organized into civilizations and these, in turn, are subdivided into collections. Each collection of assets refers to a specific cultural context (the Roman port; the Renaissance winery; etc.) and they organize the different 3D historical objects from our collection. These collections are not closed sets but rather groups of objects that will grow progressively as new pieces are added.
All our 3D objects are organized chronologically, contextually and following other criteria (material, type of object, etc.) and can be located through these criteria thanks to the intelligent search engine that our catalog incorporates.
What is a historical asset?
We understand by historical asset the 3D virtual reconstruction of an object or group of objects from a scientific work of historical-archaeological virtual reconstruction. In this way, the authors of the pieces carry out a preliminary research work to later design each of the pieces in 3D. On the individual pages of each of the 3D models there is a historical-archaeological description of the pieces as well as a bibliography and the chronological and contextual arc of the use of the historical object. In this way, we guarantee the rigor of the pieces in our catalogue.
