UBITECH Launches KINETIKA Innovation Action to Advance the Digitization and Analysis of Dynamic Cultural Heritage Objects

UBITECH announces the official launch of KINETIKA, a new EU co-funded Innovation Action titled “Advancing the Digitization and Analysis of Dynamic Cultural Heritage Objects”, marking a significant step forward in the protection, understanding and sustainable management of complex cultural artefacts. The project’s kick-off meeting is hosted by the coordinating partner, Universidad de Salamanca, and takes place on 21 January 2026 in Spain. Funded under Grant Agreement No. 101233379, KINETIKA runs from January 2026 to December 2028, spanning a 36-month period. The project addresses the growing need to preserve cultural heritage objects that are not static, but dynamic in nature, such as mechanisms, structures and artefacts with moving or interacting components. By capturing both their physical form and internal complexity, KINETIKA introduces a new paradigm for understanding heritage objects as living systems rather than static exhibits.
