Abstract

In the context of rapid advancements in artificial intelligence and information technology, promoting industrial upgrade and innovation urgently requires the integration of digital intelligence technologies. For historic districts rich in traditional cultural heritage, the tension between preservation and development has become increasingly acute: it is essential to both safeguard deep cultural roots and leverage cutting-edge technologies to activate economic vitality. Therefore, there is an urgent need to establish a comprehensive theoretical framework and design scientifically grounded strategies to ensure sustainable protection and revitalization of these districts. This study, taking historic districts in southern Fujian, China, as a case example, integrates cultural gene theory with the concept of new-quality productive forces to propose effective revitalization strategies. Firstly, by combining cultural resource surveys, a scheme for constructing a cultural gene map empowered by digital intelligence is proposed. Subsequently, the study explores the application of advanced technologies such as digitalization, virtual reality, mixed reality, and human-computer interaction to formulate specific pathways for revitalization, including digital cultural tourism, intelligent guided tours, and cultural creative product development. The findings of this research not only provide theoretical support and practical guidance for the sustainable protection and revitalization of Minnan’s historic districts but also offer valuable insights and reference for the regeneration of cultural heritage spaces in other regions.
