Intro: Dive into art.

In a museum space, there are many artworks, each of which has a world that users can dive into. Users can not only view the artworks in the museum, but also dive directly into the world of each piece for an immersive and interactive art experience.

Design

Interact with digital museum.

Each artwork's world has interactive elements. These allow users to have a more tangible and engaging art experience. For example, switching on the power of the world, waking up an AI docent, or turning on a display to watch some video art.

Design

Interact with iconic AI
in the digital museum.

The Art Journey begins with the iconic AI docents, which reflects the character of each artwork, explaining the artwork and the artist. They basically act as docents, leading and helping the user through the journey of the artwork. Users can ask questions about any aspect of the artwork via “Text” or more easily via “Voice mode”.

The buttons on the right side of the chat UI offer suggestions for deeper explanations, related questions, and the ability to navigate to the next step in the art journey.

Design

Interact with art pieces and objects
in the digital museum.

Users can interact with 3D elements in the world in conjunction with the AI docent.

Design

End of the art journey.

After completing a journey in the world, the badge for the artwork is saved to the user's Art Diary as proof of that experience. Afterwards, the user will be returned to the museum and is free to explore other artworks or enter other worlds.

Design

Gift shop experience.

When users exits the museum, they will encounter a gift shop. It allows users to create their own personalized art through generative AI and purchase goods featuring their art. What’s special is that the AI-generated art is all based on the “individual experience and footsteps in the museum”. This means the graphics and goods that everyone creates are all personalized and one-of-a-kind. All graphics and goods will look different depending on how much experience they have with which art.
