Abstract:
The Smart Audio Guide Companion is an innovative system designed to transform and enhance visitor experiences in museums, exhibitions, and art galleries through intelligent automation. Traditional museums often rely on manual guides or printed descriptions, which can limit engagement and accessibility for visitors. To address this problem, this project introduces a pairof smart headphones that automatically play relevant audio information when avisitor approaches any exhibit or art work. Using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacons, NFC tags, or QR code recognition, the system detects the visitor’s proximity and delivers accurate, pre-recorded, or AI-generated audio content without requiring any manual interaction. A key feature of this system is its multi-language audio support, allowing visitors to listen to exhibit informationin their preferred language such as Urdu, English, or other regional languages. This ensures inclusivity and accessibility for a diverse range of audiences. Additionally, a mobile and web application has been developed to manage multiple headphones, add or update exhibit information, and monitor overalldevice activity. By combining AI-based text-to-speech technology, smart automation, and multi-language functionality, the Smart Audio Guide Companion provides a modern, user-friendly, and interactive solution. It not only fills the gap in Pakistan’s existing museum and gallery systems but also promotes digital transformation, cultural awareness, and smart tourism through the use of advanced, visitor-focused technology.
