Digital Display Case: Museum exhibition system to convey background information about exhibits

Abstract

In our research, we aim to construct the Digital Display Case system which we can introduce into exhibition rooms in museums like conventional display cases, to tell visitors the background information about the exhibit more effectively. We categorize the background information into diachronicity and synchronicity, and decide specifications of the system to convey these information. Then we construct the prototype of the system based on them. With this prototype, we make sample exhibitions to tell the background information about the exhibits, and get review from museum over it.
