OPENYOURMUSEUM

Each person's sensoriality and relationship with the physical environment around them is further stimulated through the use of devices and programmes specifically designed to create an increasingly dynamic experience. Like the serious games, OpenYourMuseum's aim is an interaction addressed not so much to entertainment or the passive transmission of information, according to a traditional model, but rather to actual active learning through the concept of play and the use of devices as tools for the learning process.

Set of applications

Daisy App

IOS and Android application to facilitate the exploration of the museum and the display of new multimedia content proposed from time to time by the museum curators.
Through SilenceTags it is automatically activated when the visitor approaches a work.

Daisy Backstage

It enables the management and publication of all content displayed in Daisy APP.
A dashboard for museum curators to publish text and audio/video content for each work on display.

QR Code & SilenceTag

These allow users to ‘tag’ and display specific content, based on their position within the museum, via QR Codes or through SilenceTags.
They activate DaisyAPP, without the need for Internet, and for SilenceTags automatically through sound signals imperceptible to the human ear.

Daisy APP

It is an APP that allows visitors to the museum to explore its environment and find information, sounds and videos for each point of interest.

Daisy APP is a real virtual assistant which, once activated, offers specific content for each individual work while visiting the museum.

An APP designed to, among other things:

propose to visitors, musical suggestions, images and contextual content to each individual work, acting therefore as a virtual assistant;
suggest moments of interaction with the works on display in order to encourage informal learning;
provide support for visually impaired visitors, thanks to the presence of the SilenceTag system, which enables access to all available resources through ultrasound technology;
remember the works of art seen allowing personal itineraries to be memorised so that they can be reviewed beyond the museum doors, thus extending the experience of the visit.
works in the absence of internet connection and in historic buildings as well

QR Code & SilenceTag

Every point of interest within the museum can be ‘tagged’ through a normal QR Code, or by the brand new SilenceTags that activate the APP via imperceptible sound signals even if no connection to internet is available.

SilenceTags pick up sound signals that are not perceptible to the human ear coming from a device placed inside a specific box, located in correspondence with the work or artefact it refers to. Thus the APP opens and shows the tag-related content. Not requiring an Internet connection, Daisy APP also works in historical buildings without a signal.

Multilingual APP and synchrony

Daisy APP enables audio/video playback in the selected language by the visitor in synchrony with the videos played in the museum rooms.

How it works: when a visitor enters a museum room, Daisy App automatically activates the narrator's voice in complete synchrony with the images being displayed. The voice will tell stories that are specific to the room in the user selected language and will track the displayed images from the instant they are there.

Daisy Backstage

Daisy Backstage platform allows museum curators to publish text and audio video content in the Daisy APP.

Daisy Backstage is set up as a tabbed dashboard to manage events as well as to create and publish event-specific content.

This management environment allows:
the publishing of content and suggested itineraries on the APP;
the cataloguing and uploading of information on the works, including images and audio as well as video narratives;
the publishing of cards designed on purpose by the curator for events organised by the museum independently: indeed, the user will find, time after time, the app updated with the new event upon launching it.

The backoffice web platform - Daisy Backstage - therefore allows the complete control of the works on display in the museum and the publication of descriptive content such as captions, photographs and audio as well as video comments.
