MUSEA is a system that connects content, tells the story of the museum's artworks, and enables usage of a multimedia totem in "Touchless" mode.
You can provide museum visitors an interactive experience with MUSEA by enabling them to use the available totems even without actually touching them
What is Musea?
A cutting-edge integrated system called MUSEA makes it simple to connect multimedia cultural content to communicate the story of the artworks that are on display in museums, exhibits, and other cultural venues.
By moving a finger close to the monitor without actually touching it, the visitor can access the content using a totem that also supports “touchless” use.
The multimedia totem must be equipped with a Mini PC or with the device included with the “MUSEA Pacchetto Touchless” Visitors can use a totem that is set in such a manner to navigate through customized content that has been created using the appropriate integrated system.
By interactive participation, MUSEA improves and engages visitor experiences.
Any multimedia object connected to the network can have its content quickly and easily modified by the museum manager, who can also monitor their status remotely.

How does it work?
The MUSEA system makes it possible to quickly and easily make information content accessible, which increases the value of a visit to a museum, a cultural place or an exhibition.
A device that enables a multimedia totem to be transformed into a tool with which may be interacted with in “Touchless” mode, i.e. without physically touching the screen, with obvious advantages from a hygienic point of view, makes it easier to use this content when necessary.
The Touchless system operates using gesture detection technology, which recognizes user hand movements made in front of a particular sensor located in the Touchless Package device.
The following are MUSEA’s defining characteristics:
1
Using a user-friendly software, create a navigation gallery for the material
2
Allows you to use any totem with horizontal screen
3
With just one click, send the prepared content gallery to the relevant totem.
4
Enables you to set a visitor-ready totem into touchless mode
5
Enables remote monitoring and content modification of multimedia totems
What can the visitor do?
1. View the art collections
When a visitor approaches the totem, he or she has access to a system that enables them to quickly learn about the collections of artwork (paintings, statues, etc.) that are present in the space they are visiting.
He can easily and intuitively explore among the pictures, movies, and information on the multimedia totem in touch or touchless mode.
2. Choose and view the collections and related artworks
The visitor can choose a collection and the associated artwork by moving their finger toward the screen and choosing one of the titles that are displayed.
After being chosen, the work is shown on the screen along with the details and insights related to it.
3. View information and insights
The accessible information and insights may be of the multimedia kind (written and images) and may include descriptions of the pictorial technique, the context (iconography), historical and cultural features, etc.
By applying markers on certain details or pictorial groups in the work, a second level of reading that is directly on the work reveals the insights.
Once chosen, specific sections offering written insights supported by visuals appear.
What can the museum manager do?
1. Create navigation path
Via the “Musea Editor,” the MUSEA system manager is able to construct collections , links to artworks, information, and insights, as well as an easy and intuitive navigation path across the artwork available.
2. Create and edit information and insights
To provide visitors with thorough information and insights, the manager can easily develop and alter the multimedia content (images and text) linked with each artwork using the “Musea Editor” at any moment.
3. Download the content
With “Basic Package +“ or with “Touchless Package +”, a manager can remotely or manually update the application at any time.
Musea can be used with the "Touchscreen" totem
All common touchscreen totems available on the market are compatible with the Musea multimedia system. All you need to activate the function is a touchscreen totem with an internal or externally linked small PC. In this situation, the mini PC must be loaded with Musea for Windows using the instructions in the manual.
The touchscreen totem can also be connected to the device inlcuded with the MUSEA Touchless Package and contains Musea for Windows.
Success Stories
Capitoline Museums
A customized version of the MUSEA system is used by the Capitoline Museums of Rome to provide visitors with an immersive and interactive browsing experience within their art collections.
For them, a “ad hoc” solution known as VISEA was developed, enabling an incredibly inventive visit to the frescoes in the “Sala dei Capitani.”
Visitors can navigate through the frescoes using the VISEA solution, learning about their historical and cultural context, and retracing the many periods when they were painted.
A more hygienic and secure experience is guaranteed because the information can be chosen in this instance too without touching any devices.
The aim of the immersive experience is to improve knowledge and appreciation of the art collections. With multimedia insights and markings on particular aspects of the artwork, the viewer can learn about the history and technique of the fresco in this manner.
