Abstract

With the continuous development of science and technology, artificial intelligence begins to enter people’s daily lives and gradually promote the protection and inheritance of traditional culture in many fields. Furong Village is an ancient village with more than a thousand years of history in Yongjia. There are many intangible cultural heritage here. Under the help of innovative AI multimodal technology, the intangible cultural heritage are transformed into dynamic video stories. These stories are integrated into cultural tourism, and a new type of digital integration plan has been formed, cultural exhibition, education and travel. Furong Ancient Village 
is located in Yongjia County. It is one of the earliest settlements existing for more than a thousand years. There is abundant intangible cultural heritage in Furong Ancient Village. Under the help of innovative AI multimodal technology, the intangible cultural heritage is transformed into dynamic video stories. These stories are integrated into cultural tourism, and a new type of digital integration plan has been formed, cultural exhibition, education and travel.
