Mixed Reality Guided Museum Tour: Digital Enhancement of Museum Experience

Abstract

Museums as architectural structures rely on physical objects, which limit the content of their exhibits and the frequency of updates. The aim of the research was to create a richer museum visit experience by adding digital commentary and presentation to existing exhibits through a mixed reality-based guided tour system. We utilized headsets and visual positioning system to design contents that would enable a deeper understanding of the exhibits and an enjoyable experience. We found that more than 80 percent of participants to our experiment agreed with the effectiveness of the system and willingness to pay additional experience fees.
