QuakeQuiz - A Case Study on Deploying a Playful Display Application in a Museum Context
In MUM '17: Proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Multimedia (bib)

In this paper, we present a case study in which we designed and implemented an interactive museum exhibit. In particular, we extended a section of the museum with an interactive quiz game. The project is an example of an opportunistic deployment where the needs of different stakeholders (museum administration, visitors, researchers) and the properties of the space needed to be considered. It is also an example of how we can apply knowledge on methodology and audience behavior collected over the past years by the research community. At the focus of this paper is (1) the design and concept phase that led to the initial idea for the exhibit, (2) the implementation phase, (3) a roll-out and early insights phase where we tested and refined the application in an iterative design process on-site, and (4) the final deployment as a permanent exhibit of the museum. We hope our report to be useful for researchers and practitioners designing systems for similar contexts.
