The Digital Inheritance of the Long-Drum Dance of the Yao Ethnic Group: Museum Interactive Experience Design by Integrating AI and XR Technology

Long-drum dance is a highly representative art form in Yao culture, and its inheritance and innovation are facing many challenges in today's era. Taking long-drum dance as the research object, this study designs a museum interactive experience system by combining artificial intelligence (AI) and extended reality (XR) technology. The dance movement data of long-drum dance is collected by motion capture technology, and 3D modelling software is used to construct virtual characters and scenes, and then software such as MotionBuilder is used to combine the movement data with the 3D model, and finally the virtual display venue is constructed in a game engine such as Unity3D. The system supports location media technology, virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) devices, so that the audience can experience the long-drum dance in an immersive way, learn its movements and understand its cultural connotations. This study not only provides a new way for the inheritance of long-drum dance, but also provides a reference for the digital display and promotion of traditional culture, which has important educational significance and practical value.
