  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 3814))

Abstract

In this paper we present a multimedia information system based on an application server for the publishing of rich media content in museums and exhibitions. With this system it is possible to realize personalized and adaptive, knowledge based exhibitions and exhibition components for use in place and online. The system allows the presentation of digital content adjusted to the individual visitor’s interests. It supports different display devices from PDA’s up to projection screens and allows the integration of different localization techniques for location based information presentation. All these points lead to a completely new and exciting experience for the exhibition visitor. Furthermore, a special authoring tool is included that makes the creation and administration of exhibitions very easy for the museums.
