Museums have been a domain of study and design intervention for
Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) for several decades. However,
while resources providing overviews on the key issues in the
scholarship have been produced in the fields of museum and visitor
studies, no such resource as yet existed within HCI. This book
fills this gap and covers key issues regarding the study and design
of HCIs in museums. Through an on-site focus, the book examines how
digital interactive technologies impact and shape galleries,
exhibitions, and their visitors. It consolidates the body of work
in HCI conducted in the heritage field and integrates it with
insights from related fields and from digital heritage practice.
Processes of HCI design and evaluation approaches for museums are
also discussed. This book draws from the authors' extensive
knowledge of case studies as well as from their own work to provide
examples, reflections, and illustrations of relevant concepts and
problems. This book is designed for students and early career
researchers in HCI or Interaction Design, for more seasoned
investigators who might approach the museum domain for the first
time, and for researchers and practitioners in related fields such
as heritage and museum studies or visitor studies. Designers who
might wish to understand the HCI perspective on visitor-facing
interactive technologies may also find this book useful.
