Advancements in multimedia technology enable remote exploration of cultural heritage sites, with Virtual Reality (VR) allowing users to visit historical sites virtually. Utilizing digitized data from the Dunhuang Research Academy, a VR experience of the Dunhuang Caves offers structured tours or self-directed exploration, each with distinct challenges. To address this, we developed an assistive guiding system integrating a virtual agent powered by Microsoft Azure and ChatGPT, providing interactive guidance and knowledge. A user study on Dunhuang Cave 61 examined the impact of virtual agent appearances and behaviors, revealing that full-body agents with gestures and expressions provide the most realistic and engaging presence.

Advancements in multimedia technology enable remote exploration of cultural heritage sites, with Virtual Reality (VR) allowing users to visit historical sites virtually. Utilizing digitized data from the Dunhuang Research Academy, a VR experience of the Dunhuang Caves offers structured tours or self-directed exploration, each with distinct challenges. To address this, we developed an assistive guiding system integrating a virtual agent powered by Microsoft Azure and ChatGPT, providing interactive guidance and knowledge. A user study on Dunhuang Cave 61 examined the impact of virtual agent appearances and behaviors, revealing that full-body agents with gestures and expressions provide the most realistic and engaging presence.
