Aimed at improving and augmenting the gallery and museum visitor experience through wearable technology, ARtSENSE is a European research project, in collaboration with two other cultural organisations and five technical and research organisations, including FACT and Liverpool John Moores University.
The next step in interactive guides, the device in development uses eye-capture information and audio and stimulation data to monitor the user's biological response (eye-tracking, heart rate and skin conductivity) to an artwork or artifact - and pushes information to them accordingly.
For the museum visitor the result is an enhanced, personalised experience, taking them on an innovative journey through the hidden stories of the artworks and artifacts.
