The future of digital cultural heritage lies in transforming passive observation into deeply en-gaging, interactive, and inclusive experiences. As soci-ety increasingly seeks new ways to access, explore, and learn from the world’s cultural treasures, there is a pressing need for solutions that combine the richness of immersive technologies with state-of-the-art Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) principles. The ANNETTE project responds to this challenge with a next-generation telepresence application for the renowned Oracle Do-dona archaeological site, designed and implemented by DOTSOFT. 
The Dodona Oracle AR mobile application enables users—regardless of their physical location or mobil-ity—to embark on a highly interactive and guided ex-ploration of the ancient sanctuary. Through advanced 3D reconstruction, visitors are virtually transported to the site, navigating through realistic digital environ-ments using standard mobile devices. A photorealistic real-time avatar serves as their digital guide, welcoming users, narrating the history, responding to questions, and providing contextually relevant information on points of interest. The application’s design embraces multimodal interaction: users can access multimedia content—text, images, audio, video—triggered by their actions or se-lected paths, while also benefiting from suggested the-matic routes and adaptive navigation tailored to their preferences or needs.
