Challenge
Create an intuitive Android and iOS audio guide app which helps guide visitors through the exhibit, complimenting information provided via existing screens and exhibits pieces.
Solution
The app features a single audio guide in English with 15 exhibit stations. Phase I of the project involves using a floor map with “stations” which can be clicked on the play audio and learn more and in phase II of the project, BLE beacons will be added to the stations so audio can be triggered automatically when guests approach stations.
Testimonial
“Amazing audio guide for a great museum on geothermal energy. Great for the exhibition at Hveragerdi; even if you don’t go, it’s nice background reading about geothermal energy.”
– Deryck Chan, Guest, ON Geothermal Exhibtion
Multimedia Guide App
The app features a single multimedia tour guide to accompany the on-location exhibition. The home page provides information about the tour, including number of locations in the tour, location of the exhibition and a button to install and start the tour.
Indoor Maps
The tour features a zoomable indoor floor map which shows the locations of each “station” or area for triggering the audio files for the tour. The tour is not using any location technology, so the stations can be clicked on to play audio and view more info at any time. The exhibition organisers have the option to add BLE beacons for automatic triggering at a later date.
Exhibit Points of Interest (Stations)
The exhibition is split in to multiple “stations” which represent different parts of the exhibition. Guests see the floor map with numbered stations on the map. Guests can click on the “station” graphic to open the point of interest to play the audio and view more info about that part of the exhibition. BLE Beacons can be added to the facility and attached to each station at a later date for automatic triggering of content based on guests proximity to the “stations”.
