Abstract
  • In the context of rapid advancements in digital technology, the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, a World Cultural Heritage site, are experiencing a revitalization through digital means. This study systematically explores the current state and cultural value of digital cultural products related to the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, analyzing the application of new-generation digital technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR) in the Dunhuang cultural heritage. Through literature review and market research, the study categorizes various digital cultural products, including digital collections, applications, digital collectibles, and digital avatars. It also examines their significant value in heritage preservation, global dissemination, cultural creative industry development, and educational promotion. This research not only provides empirical support for digital innovation in Dunhuang culture but also offers valuable insights for the digital development of other cultural heritages.
