Abstract :
In the recent years, there is an extremely growing interest in the development of mobile information systems for museum visitors. Many of these systems utilize sensor technologies like HF RFIDs to provide an enhanced experience to the visitors. We explore the usage of UHF RFIDs to enhance museum visits and demonstrate a mobile application for delivering multimedia information to museum visitors.
