To begin our project, we started from the premise that everyone owns a smartphone today. The technology that it embeds allows us to offer a wide choice of uses. The cameras that smartphones have today are extremely impressive in terms of quality and speed. We have therefore chosen to use this to recognize the different paintings and works during a visit to the museum. In a simple photo the application recognizes the work thanks to an augmented reality software. Auditory and written notes are then directly proposed in order to get information about the work, the artist and the artistic movement. Thanks to Guideo, the time waiting for someone to finish reading the information displayed next to the paintings is over. You can now access everything directly on your phone. Knowing how to find your way around a museum is essential if you don't want to waste too much time and that's also what Guideo does. Indeed, by integrating our GPS position, the application is able to guide you through the biggest museums and thus respect the time you have indicated to complete your visit.

Our First Mindmaps

these mindmaps explain .............

The mindmaps we produced enabled us to identify the key points concerning our application and its scope. We are aware that with the current technological developments we can give new perspectives to the museum visit. Offering an interface that is easy to use, aesthetic and malleable in time and space was therefore a priority for us. Adapting recent technologies such as augmented reality and regrouping crucial information that allows for an excellent visit within the same application is therefore the most judicious choice.

Our Tests

Target selection

It was important for us to choose various targets in order to be able to collect the maximum amount of information regarding the use of our application. In particular, we chose to have our application tested by a fifty year old person in order to see if she took the interface in hand and had no major problems navigating through the different pages of our application.

Information collected

Through the tests and interviews we conducted, we were able to settle the various small points concerning the use of the interface. We took into account the comments of the users who told us how they wanted the application to be able to match different artistic trends within the same visit or how to find the content of the visit afterwards. The feedback has been very positive about this test phase.

Our target

We want above all to create an application that is easy to use for everyone and we have no doubt that younger users have no trouble getting used to a new interface quickly. The challenge here was to make the application fully usable for older people so that they can enjoy our services. It is by looking at this category of the population that we designed the interface. By being able to navigate in a simple and intuitive way, we will therefore correspond to a very large majority of the population. This is in perfect agreement with the fact that today a major part of the public visiting the museum is still an older public.

Some definitions to understand our app

The term "virtual reality" typically refers to computer technology that simulates the physical presence of a user in an environment artificially generated by software. Virtual reality creates an environment with which the user can interact.

— Virtual reality

An artistic movement or artistic movement is a group of artists and artistic works with a common aesthetic. Art historians generally use the notion of movement when the group associated with it claims to have a clearly defined theoretical corpus as a manifesto.

Le billet électronique est un billet dématérialisé qui remplace un support d'information matériel par des informations numériques. Vous pourrez l'acheter directement sur notre application qui sera en relation avec ces musées.
