Research & Development for Interactive Museums & Exhibits

Museum interactives have to last ten years, work for every visitor, and survive a class of fifth graders. Our R&D team designs for that reality from the start. We prototype interactions that are accessible, multilingual, and engineered for the wear-and-tear of public use.

What we deliver for Interactive Museums & Exhibits

  • Accessible interaction prototyping (WCAG, ADA, inclusive)
  • Multilingual content and UI patterns
  • Long-life touch, gesture, and tangible interface concepts
  • Computer vision for crowd-friendly group interaction
  • RFID and NFC visitor journey concepts

Where this shows up

  • Accessible interactive prototypes: Concepts designed from day one for screen-reader, switch, low-vision, and motor-impaired users without retrofits.
  • Multilingual exhibit interfaces: Prototype language switching, audio descriptions, and culturally adaptive content for diverse visitor audiences.
  • Group interaction concepts: Camera-based tracking that lets families and school groups interact together, not just one person at a time.

Common questions

How do you design for accessibility?

We follow WCAG 2.1 AA as a floor and design inclusively from kickoff. Our R&D leads test with assistive technology, not just compliance checklists.

Can interactives run for years without service?

Yes. We prototype on hardware designed for institutional duty cycles and document maintenance procedures for your in-house team.

Will the prototype play nicely with our existing CMS?

We design content layers to plug into common museum content management systems and document the integration before we ship.
