Recently, the list of national cultural and tourism science and technology innovation R&D projects for 2026 was announced. Only 20 projects nationwide have been approved, including 8 key projects and 12 general projects.
The "Research and Development and Application Demonstration of Key Technologies for Multimodal Content Generation and Immersive Interaction for Low-altitude Tourism in Scenic Areas" applied by Global DigiTech Innovation Co., Ltd. was successfully selected as a key project and became one of the 8 key projects. The project was recommended by the Guangdong Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism. This selection reflects the comprehensive value of the project in terms of technological innovation, scenario application and demonstration and promotion.
Recognized for innovation strength and demonstration value
As can be seen from the complete list, this year's selected projects focus on cutting-edge directions such as Agentic AI, multi-modal large models, multi-agent collaboration, generative AI, lightweight large models, humanoid robots, etc., and have a clear orientation towards technological innovation and scene demonstration.
The Global DigiTech Innovation Co., Ltd. project was selected as a key project, which reflects the recognition of the project's technical solutions, cultural tourism scene adaptability and application demonstration prospects. It also further demonstrates the company's R&D and industrialization capabilities in the integration of artificial intelligence, digital content and low-altitude cultural tourism.
Focus on low-altitude cultural tourism and make professional aerial photography a service that tourists can directly use
The selected projects this time focus on low-altitude tourism in scenic spots, and explore the integration of low-altitude flight, artificial intelligence and digital content production capabilities into standardized cultural tourism services in response to problems such as limited ground perspective, high threshold for drone operation, and long post-production and delivery links in traditional scenic spot experiences.
The project uses UAV intelligent leasing as the entrance, cloud-edge collaboration and multi-modal large models as the engine, and plans to build a closed-loop service from QR code reservation, cabinet unloading, automatic take-off, smart mirror movement to return settlement. Through capabilities such as automatic routes, obstacle avoidance scheduling, and flight compliance management, the professional flight control process is encapsulated in the system, and the research and development goal is to "take off in 30 seconds after scanning the QR code", allowing ordinary tourists to easily obtain a low-altitude shooting experience.
Use multi-modal AI to create real-time photos, creating an "aerial photographer" around tourists
In the content production process, the project will connect the processes of real scene collection, portrait fusion, style generation and real-time film production, use multi-modal AI to automatically complete material understanding, content processing and personalized generation, and output real-life blockbusters, virtual digital avatars and short short videos of exclusive plots for scenic spots.
Visitors do not need to master complex flight control, photography and post-production skills, but can obtain digital works with a sense of film, story and personal recognition at the scenic spot, realizing "what you see is what you get, downloadable on site, and instantly shareable".
Connect experience, content and communication to cultivate new consumption scenarios in scenic spots
For tourists, the project will promote travel records from "ground shooting" to "low-altitude immersive co-creation", bringing new viewing perspectives and content experiences. For scenic spots, the project can connect flight experience, film payment and social sharing, forming a closed operation loop of "experience payment-content payment-social communication-continuous drainage".
The project plans to build an integrated PaaS and SaaS platform covering reservation, leasing, rendering, payment and sharing, and carry out application demonstrations in representative high-level scenic spots. By verifying technology, service processes and business models in real scenarios, low-altitude cultural tourism solutions that can be standardized, replicated and promoted will be gradually formed.
Empowering cultural tourism with new productivity through technological innovation
The successful establishment of this project is recognition of Global DigiTech Innovation Co., Ltd.’s innovative capabilities in the integration of artificial intelligence, digital content and cultural tourism technology. It also marks that the project has entered a new stage of key technology research and development, platform construction and application demonstration.
In the next step, Global DigiTech Innovation Co., Ltd. will focus on the project goals, combine industry and scene resources, accelerate key technology research and demonstration applications, create new experiences for tourists with more convenient, smarter, and more immersive digital services, cultivate new products for scenic spots, and contribute digital intelligence power to the integrated development of low-altitude economy and cultural tourism. Let every tourist have an "aerial photographer".
