VR/AR technology is a key enabler for new ways of immersively experiencingcultural heritage artifacts based on their virtual counterparts obtained from adigitization process. In this paper, we focus on enriching VR-based objectinspection by additional haptic feedback, thereby creating tangible culturalheritage experiences. For this purpose, we present an approach for interactiveand collaborative VR-based object inspection and annotation. Our systemsupports high-quality 3D models with accurate reflectance characteristics whileadditionally providing haptic feedback regarding the object shape featuresbased on a 3D printed replica. The digital object model in terms of a printablerepresentation of the geometry as well as reflectance characteristics arestored in a compact and streamable representation on a central server, whichstreams the data to remotely connected users/clients. The latter can jointlyperform an interactive inspection of the object in VR with additional hapticfeedback through the 3D printed replica. Evaluations regarding systemperformance, visual quality of the considered models as well as insights from auser study indicate an improved interaction, assessment and experience of theconsidered objects.
