Discovering our history in the 21st century way

When developing an application for a historic building such as a museum, it is important to consider all aspects of what makes a successful museum and how we can build on it by using the latest technology. 

Challenge


Every successful product is the fruit of hard work, and this applies to every field of business. Intuition alone is not enough to create a product that people will love and use especially when it will be used alongside a historic building. By developing an application which will unite artwork and technology was always going to be a challenge. The way in which I developed the idea was to include AR codes which will help bring the historic artwork to life and give additional information of the artists. By using the traditional methods of a museum and utilising 21st century way, this will help encourage the younger generation to take in more of our history.

Value

The benefits of the application was to develop an understanding of both the traditional and the modern ways of learning our history. Something which would encourage museums to move into the 21st century. The application incorporate infrared/Bluetooth technology to track your location in the museum through a digital blueprint. This would allow other visitors of the museum to upload the best routes around the museum as well as leaving reviews and even direct paths to specific artists. The application included a profile set up function and incorporated a Facebook login if you preferred to set up your profile through social media.
