Huron-Wendat Museum innovates during the health crisis


How to innovate under health constraints
As part of its reopening, the Huron-Wendat Museum was looking for a fun and engaging way to bring its exhibition, "The Canoe, Bearer of Traditions," to life. Given the current health crisis, it was impossible to install traditional interactive devices in the exhibition. So what could be done?
A mediation tool in everyone's hands
By using MySmartJourney technology, the museum has ensured that its visitors don't miss any of the rich content planned for the exhibition. Interactive experiences and additional information are now available on each visitor's smartphone, thanks to NFC technology and QR codes.
This way, even without a guide, visitors to the Huron-Wendat Museum can enjoy a rich and immersive visit. Expanding your knowledge during a quiz, hearing and repeating a word in the Wendat language, participating in the creation of a “word cloud”, are all experiences offered through MySmartJourney technology.
