Abstract :
The Gold Museum, in Bogota, Colombia, displays the largest collection of pre-Hispanic gold artifacts in the world and it has been renovated recently. With funds from the Colombian Government, we have created a multimodal experience that allows visitors to touch, hear, and see small artifacts. Here we present a description of this demo, its functionality, and technical requirements.
