Here, you can get familiar with those museums that took a major step towards a fascinating and more enjoyable future of augmented reality learning and exploring. Each of them is unique and uses AR based on their primary focus.
- The Cleveland Museum of Art
This is one of the most technologically advanced facilities of such kind. The Cleveland Museum of Arts perfectly combines and balances the latest AR and motion capture technologies to make the most out of its art pieces and artifacts.
It can boast interactive AR pottery making stands and digital painting canvases that will leave no child or adult indifferent.
- The Museum of Celtic Heritage
The Museum of Celtic Heritage is located in Salzburg and is considered as one of the largest European museums of Celtic history.
They decided to go for a rather creative way of educating. You can use the Speaking Celt AR app if you want to be guided by an animated 3D model of a walking talking ancient Celt.
This AR “museum guard” can tell you a lot of interesting facts about the exhibits and Celtic history in general.
- The Archaeological Park Carnuntum
Despite it being one of the largest untouched archeological landscapes and a gladiator school, it still has not been excavated. However, thanks to AR technologies, you have a chance to see this gladiator school in all its glory and real scale.
It is a good example that shows the outdoor AR in action.
- Center on Contemporary Art
Located in Seattle, the Center on Contemporary Art had an art exhibition of 18 3D artists. Using the CoCA Pop-Up (AR)t AR app, the viewers can watch this three-dimensional artwork taking shapes and springing to life.
As you can see, each of the previously shown museums found its own way of utilizing augmented reality. And, in each of those cases, the level of interaction and overall satisfaction of their visitors has grown manifold.
More and more museums are trying to get the hang of augmented reality. With each passing day, the advantages of AR applications and technologies are becoming more distinct.
