This design is called the intelligent interactive experience design of Chime.

Production Technology

Design Challenge

Designers encountered two main difficulties. One is the design of the graphic content and how to make it acceptable to the public; the other is the realization of technology and hardware, and how to build the entire interactive system.

Project Duration

The project was launched at Hefei University of Technology in Anhui, China in February 2021, completed in June of the same year, and exhibited in mid-June.

Operation Flow

In the entire system, all flashing images can be clicked, including the aperture on the chime, the menu bar, various small images of each interface, and so on. The aperture on the chime guides the audience to play a melody. After clicking the icon in the menu bar, the icon will light up briefly, and then it will transition to the next interface. For example, in the history interface, flashing flags and characters can be clicked. After clicking, they will glow, and then text will appear.

Research

The crowds in the museum are diverse, and it is very difficult to meet everyone's viewing needs at the same time, which requires the introduction of interactive design. Set up information levels for the exhibition and classify the interface to meet the general needs of different groups of people. Each level has more information and audiences can explore independently. This method of interweaving the old and the new can not only protect the cultural relics, but also bring people closer to the cultural relics and renew the vitality of classical culture.

Inspiration

First of all, I have been paying attention to interactive projection and music interactive wall for a long time.When I visit museums, as we all know, a lot of objects are placed in glass cases, and there is a lack of interaction between them and the audience. When I saw the chimes, I wanted to hit them and listen to their sound, but the situation was absolutely not allowed, which gave me an opportunity to ask myself, why not combine the interactive projection with that？
