The museum selected Sony’s solution after testing several options. Staff noted the system’s ease of use and high sound quality. It works through lightweight wireless headsets that connect automatically to each exhibit. This lets guests move freely without pressing buttons or handling devices.
Sony designed the system with accessibility in mind. It supports multiple languages and includes features for hearing-impaired users. Volume adjusts automatically based on ambient noise, ensuring consistent clarity. Battery life lasts through a full day of use, reducing the need for frequent charging.
Museum officials say early feedback from visitors has been positive. Many appreciate the hands-free setup and smooth audio transitions between displays. The system also reduces crowding around information panels since people no longer need to gather in groups to hear guided tours.
Installation was completed in under two weeks with minimal disruption to daily operations. Sony’s team worked closely with museum staff to map audio content to specific locations. Each track triggers precisely when a visitor approaches an exhibit, thanks to accurate indoor positioning.
