This book reports the main results of the Personal Experience with Active Cultural Heritage (PEACH) project, whose goal was to produce intelligent tools, or, more ambitiously, an environment for making a visit to a museum a rewarding experience. PEACH was a large four year project funded by the Autonomous Province of Trento, exploring novel technologies for
physical museum visits developed at ITC-irst (Institute for Scientific and Technological Research), Trento and DFKI (the German Institute for Research in Artificial Intelligence), Saarbrücken. The aim of the project was to significantly increase the quality of cultural heritage appreciation, in such a way as to transform passive objects into an active experience.A visit to a cultural site with a friend who knows the subject well and who knows the visitor has been a precious experience for centuries. Through time, with the development of museums and the emergence of the
cultural experience as a mass phenomenon, tools for museum communication have been introduced: labels illustrating exhibits, guidebooks, and guided tours. Following this, different forms of technology were introduced such as audio material on cassettes and later CDs (having the advantage of providing random access) as well as visual material through
various forms of kiosks, screens, or presentation rooms. In some museums, coarse-grained localization systems have been introduced as well that let the system automatically know what room the visitor is in, so that the presentation recorded for that room can be automatically selected. In very recent times, mobile computing and wireless communication have also begun to be used in some museums.
