PROPOSAL 6: Interactive LCD Displays<br />

Interactive LCD Displays: Replacing traditional printed<br />

labels with updatable LCD displays<br />

Concept:<br />

Most traditional labels for objects in exhibitions are<br />

printed descriptions that present the visitor with the<br />

basic fundamental information. Digitalised labels in<br />

the form of touch-screen LCD displays could allow<br />

Cultural Archives to update the descriptions in a quick<br />

and simple way. If an institution plans to move the<br />

exhibitions around or wants to change any information<br />

it would be very easy to update the labels. The LCD<br />

displays could be interactive, providing the Cultural<br />

Archive with an opportunity to have more additional<br />

information on objects available. The visitors could<br />

simply press on hyperlinks or an arrow to access further<br />

information. This concept would also be beneficial<br />

to those who are visual impaired as there could be<br />

a button that enlarges and decreases the text size.<br />

Tourists could also change the language of the text<br />

for translation. Archives could receive data from the<br />

touchscreen displays to enhance visitor analytics e.g.<br />

how many people touched the display and what links<br />

they were interested in.<br />
