Abstract

This paper outlines a novel location-based visitor assistant system in museums. It introduces visitor movement as a user-friendly and natural mechanism for enabling visitors. It enables visitors to explicitly or implicitly select annotation content about the exhibits and answer quizzes about their knowledge by their moving to specified spots in a museum. We operated the system at a science museum in Japan and received many positive evaluations from visitors.
