A LoRa wireless smart badge for enhancing museum visitors' experience: demo abstract

Abstract

This paper presents a smart badge system for managing museum visitors and improving their viewing experience. The badge uses a LoRa wireless interface for two-way long-distance communication with tour guides and the museum's control center. The control center can collect information such as the visitors' viewing p, location, and status of activity level, enabling it to wirelessly send suggestions of exhibits and visiting paths to visitors, avoiding the overcrowding of visitors in one location. Meanwhile, visitors can communicate with the control center to update their locations and ask simple questions via the badge. In this paper, we introduce the system architecture and the prototype smart badge that we used to evaluate the performance of this system.
