A native mobile or progressive web app can provide the opportunity to create a personal connection with each visitor. Offering the visitor with fun and engaging mobile tools to explore your institution and its cultural objects in their own language, their level of interest, adapting to their accessibility needs and to their age group, are just some of the criteria for a personal and valuable companion tool. Over the past year, augmented reality (AR) has been one of the most talked about breakthrough technologies in the museum and cultural sector.
During this session, the panel will provide an inside look into a variety of mobile and AR initiatives. We will have an open discussion around the opportunities, approaches, ethics and how museums can participate and encourage experimentation by outsider developers and artists, and how AR can be used to further drive engaging experience.
