Accessible and technically up to date
For the Qantas Founders Museum we worked with zetcom to develop a multimedia guide with tours, stops and numpad that is optimized for screen readers. The digital experience is complemented by virtual reality elements and two interactive AR stations that vividly convey aviation technology.
Experience technology with AR
At the first station, visitors can assemble their own aircraft – from a simple wooden frame to take-off. The second station presents a highly detailed 3D model of a radial engine. Users can click on individual components to obtain exciting background information and technical details.
Thematic navigation
Navigation within the app is not only functional, but also thematically staged: Animated marshals – as used in real airfield operations – guide visitors around the extensive grounds of the Qantas Founders Museum with authentic hand signals.
Accessible exploration with virtual reality
At the museum, some of the iconic aircraft models can be walked through and viewed directly. VR models, including that of a BOEING 747, offer an accessible alternative to give people with reduced mobility an equivalent experience.
“With our new immersive experiences, we have taken another step into the future of the Qantas Founders Museum and strengthen our profile as a mandatory stop for travellers. Our partners at zetcom and fluxguide did a terrific job and exceeded our expectations in terms of commitment and attention to detail.”
Tony Cullen, CEO Qantas Founders Museum
