The solution of the interior GPS was identified quite quickly. This solution allowed us to offer disabled people the same flexibility as all other visitors while having very little impact on the architecture of the place. With Evelity, the possibility of managing both guidance and mediation appealed to us because the application becomes a support for all, while providing a reinforced service for those who need it most.

The most important thing in a museum is the way I am welcomed, the service provided, the technology available. The museum must be pleasant for everyone. I have enough space, the pathways are intuitive, I feel safe to enjoy the experience.

FAQ

Shall we tell you a little more ? 

Okeenea : who are we ?

Okeenea Digital is a subsidiary of the Okeenea Group, specialists in the conception and supply of accessibility solutions since 1993 ! Among other things, we invented the audible beacons for traffic lights. For the past 2 years, we have been innovating with the Evelity digital indoor guidance solution for all types of disability, for all types of public buildings.

How does Evelity work ?

Within Evelity, we provide a turnkey solution allowing precise mapping and navigation inside your building open to the public.

But concretely, how does it work ? Our team studies the plans of your facilities and defines the implementation of a network of bluetooth beacons. Thanks to these beacons, we can guide your travelers from a point A to a point B.

We integrate a technological layer of type "sensor fusion" allowing the localization of the user's smartphone by integrating a network of beacons (bluetooth beacons) and the GPS to treat the surroundings of the buildings. We add algorithms to the geographical data sources to associate the "raw" position with its "probable" position on a location. This is the indoor geolocation technology.

Building open to public : micro-location VS indoor geolocation

Micro-location in building open to public is a limited technology that allows to locate a person when he is close to a beacon (point of interest or landmark). It does not allow a precise and continuous indoor wayfinding. 

Indoor geolocation, on the other hand, allows indoor navigation like a GPS, with an accuracy of 1m50 and step-by-step instructions. With Evelity, this is the technology we use, recommend and improve every day.

How long will it take to deploy the solution ?

Becoming a museum accessibility model: how to proceed?

Culture for all is a universally recognized notion. We, as human beings, depend on culture, in all its forms, to understand our society, to be part of it, to think differently... If you are a curator or a museum director, you are probably sensitive to this and you are keen to offer your visitors the best possible experience. But what about visitors with disabilities? What solutions can you put in place to make your museum accessible to them?

Not only does an accessible museum mean welcoming all types of visitors, regardless of their profile, but it also means making its content understandable to all. Your mission as a museographer is to meet both of these challenges. Whether it's paintings, sculptures or documentaries, museums have a duty to make culture accessible to all their visitors. It has always been a field sensitive to accessibility and this much earlier than others. Since culture creates dialogue and connections to others and is also synonymous with social inclusion, it makes sense.

Let's take a look at some best practices to make your museum accessible!
