Use of XR to revitalize and activate shop windows

Virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) that can be applied in many ways. A number of innovative immersive applications have already been created online commerce and in real retail. More VR/AR applications can be found in the fields of arts, fashion, real estate, architecture, city planning and guided tours. In this paper a concept for the use of AR or VR for vacant spaces in a formerly attractive shopping street is presented. In addition to common technologies and interoperability, the focus lies on revitalisation, interaction and networking of existing actors in a district. The vacancies should be brought to life with XR in a technologically and thematically diverse way, if possible as a participatory concept for many stakeholders, and thus contribute to the revitalisation of the district.
