Customer

Historian Simon Schama joins forces with National Portrait Gallery curators to create five new displays exploring the development, character and meanings of British portraiture.. The exhibit were split into five themes: Power, Love, Fame, People and Self.

Challenge

Provide a seamless “automatic audio guide” experience ,allowing guests to explore the exhibit enjoying the collection in their own language without having to think about controlling the audio.

Solution

BLE Beacons were positioned in a way so that when guests were within a certain proximity of an exhibit, the audio guide would play the corresponding audio for that theme. The temporary exhibit was published to both app stores whilst the exhibit was live.

Testimonial

“The Locatify system makes it simple to create and publish your own tours, add updates and new content as projects develop.”

– Andrea Easey, Interpretation Editor, National Portrait Gallery

The Process

Quick setup, thoughtfully chosen templates and an easy to use content management system makes it easy for anyone to get an app.

Automatic Museum Guide Template

The app uses the Automatic Museum Guide template which is designed to immerse the visitor in the experience, with audio commentary automatically playing at the right time and location.

Locatify Creator CMS Features

This app uses an indoor project with floor map and BLE Beacon enabled proximity detection to trigger audio content, when the visitor approaches set locations.

Customisation

The client provided branding assets such as app icon, loading image, banner logo and chose the theme colours.

App Store & Play Store

The app is available to download for free on both Android and iOS devices from the Locatify App Store and Locatify Play Store.
