MuSee takes a unique approach to educational interactivity on mobile devices. MuSee uses augmented reality to create an immersive environment filled with multimedia content. This artifact scanner will connect users to new and interactive information about the artifacts at the museum. Augmented reality makes our product unique, easy to use, interactive and fun! MuSee also features custom content for the client museum including event information, exhibit details, accessibility information and a donation feature. MuSee is about telling a story, and the stories at museums are far too complex, colorful, and interesting to be confined solely to text. Most museums either lack mobile applications or have poor quality applications that fail to solve the issue of engaging visitors in an interactive manner. MuSee is revolutionizing the Burke Museum with an application that creates an augmented reality experience, allowing guests to engage and interact with history in ways they never believed were possible.
