Abstract

Increasingly, interest in the application of integrated ICT technologies to cultural heritage as well as the popularity of mobile devices, enable researchers to experiment with new strategies in order to enhance tangible and intangible heritage. This paper discusses the results of a research project carried out in collaboration between TekneHub, a laboratory of the Emilia-Romagna High Technologies Network, the creative enterprise Tryeco 2.0, the enterprise TechSigno and the Museo Civico di Storia Naturale of Ferrara. First, the study tested QR Code technology for the exploitation of museum collections. The research was based on the application of Quality Function Deployment (QFD), a user-centered design methodology which allows the most effective engagement strategies to be identified in relation to the behavior of the end users involved. Secondly, the study defined the level of interoperability between RFId technology, previously studied within the same museum, and QR Code technology.
