As part of the research project, two forms of presentation of information in virtual reality were researched and designed, aiming at the different way of highlighting historical information. Both modes have been integrated into the same application and are interfaced with the web platform for both common database domains and individual components that are required in each of the two modes. Virtual reality needs visualized environments and elements to maximize its capabilities and that is why 3D modeling was the most important and extensive object for highlighting the selected locations: a) Ouranoupolis Tower and b) Delos.

The Institute of Historical Studies of the National Research Foundation conducted an extensive research and search for all the necessary information in order to incorporate a coherent text for each site and monument of Greek History. Within the framework of the project, more than 30 sites and 100 historical monuments were integrated, covering the entire geographical area of ​​the Greek Territory and for all historical eras. In most of the sites and monuments, historical information and multimedia material covers more than one era, highlighting the role they played from antiquity to the present day.

The project team designed a game-centric version of the virtual reality application with an emphasis on children and adults who like digital gaming. The user is invited to explore the Tower of Ouranoupolis and the House of Triaena in Delos through specific missions that consist of questions and answers, activities and achievements on the daily life of the time. The user collects points that can be redeemed in the game by printing 3D historical objects of the time.

The team of researchers proceeded to the selection of sites and monuments based on their importance and their impact on the evolution of Greek History. The biggest challenge was to gather and present the information in an appropriate way so that it could be exploited by the technological capabilities of virtual reality masks. It was necessary to categorize the findings and the available data and their corresponding transformation into knowledge that was transferred to the designers and developers, through interviews and collaborations, so that realistic living and everyday conditions could be created for selected locations in Greece.
