The research on applying RFID information system architecture for museum service

Abstract

The various museum services that make up the ubiquitous computing concept have developed with the rapid growth of wireless Internet environments and mobile devices. The major purpose of this research is to provide a context-aware ubiquitous museum application service environment to users by utilizing sensors and mobile devices currently available in the public sector and the marketplace. The idea is to utilize the ubiquitous technologies including smart object, sensing network, and wireless network, etc. to showcase the possibilities of their applications in the museum context. Theses projects were originally planed to span many functional departments of the National Palace Museum including the curatorial, preservation and conservation, marketing and licensing, and educational divisions. This essay will highlight those projects newly different function and diversification for visitors. © 2009 IEEE.
