04

Keep it simple

A fixed push-button design removes the need for phones, accounts or unfamiliar technology.

05

Tailor every story

Create focused audio for each object, display or gallery using the text you provide.

06

Sound consistent

Purpose-developed software turns written content into clear speech with a professional tone.

Flexible by design

The idea

Don’t just display the story—let visitors hear it.

Museums and galleries are filled with fascinating stories, but visitors do not always have the time or inclination to read a long information panel. Our fixed audio pad offers an immediate alternative: press one button and hear a concise, engaging overview.

We developed both the software and the physical product. Written descriptions, historical accounts, artist biographies and introductions can be transformed into professional spoken content that complements the display and encourages closer attention.

Without context, a visitor may see only the physical object. A well-crafted audio overview can reveal its meaning, highlight important details and turn a passing glance into a moment of discovery.

Frequently asked questions

Simple answers.

What is a fixed museum audio guide?

It is an audio device installed beside a particular exhibit. Visitors press the button and listen to information about the object or artwork through connected headphones.

Can our existing exhibit text be converted into audio?

Yes. Existing descriptions or newly written material can be turned into clear speech with a professional tone using our own text-to-speech software.

Can each exhibit have different content?

Yes. The audio can be tailored to the individual object, artwork, photograph or display, allowing each story to remain focused and relevant.

Do visitors need to download an app?

No. The fixed audio pad works independently, so visitors do not need their own phone, an account, a QR code or an application.

Which venues could use the system?

It is suitable for museums, galleries, heritage attractions, historic buildings, libraries, educational venues, visitor centres, showrooms and temporary exhibitions.
