Requirements / Visitor Experience:
This museum is housed in an old house with only stairs
to the second floor. I norder to meet accesibiltiy requirements
the museum decided to create 2 kiosks which contained
photos, video and text of all elements on the second floor
so that the same information was available to everyone.
Along with this tour feature the kiosks included a photo
archive and a 'send a psotcard' via email feature in which
a picture of yourself and a message were embedded in an
electronic postcard and emailed.

Expertise: Programming, graphic design
Unique
Features: The kiosk allowed email postcards to be
created and sent. The images in the photo gallery sat
in a folder and the museum staff could just add images
to the folder and they would be included without them
having to contact us.

Challenges: Working with the museums server to make
the postcard feature work.
