Ubiquitous Computing for knowledge transfer, exhibition design and museum operations.

An interdisciplinary design research project

The project explores how museum exhibits and spaces can be augmented by interactive media to get visitors not only informed but also emotionally involved without the need for conventional supplemental interfaces. From the perspectives of engineering, scenography and museology the potential of Ubiquitous Computing (ubiComp) for exhibition design, museum operations and knowledge transfer is considered and elaborated into a respective design toolkit.
