The idea for Muse came from the desire to transform the traditional museum experience into something more interactive, personalized, and accessible. Modern museums often struggle with engaging diverse audiences, especially children and international visitors, while also providing an informative yet enjoyable journey through their exhibits.
To address these needs, Muse was created as a tool to guide visitors through the museum in a way that caters to their individual interests, ensures a seamless navigation experience, and enhances learning through interactive features. The goal was to make every museum visit not just educational but also engaging, efficient, and memorable.
