Pilot Stage II – Validation of initial developments

The first version of the software platform, the application for the handheld devices and the multisensory activities will be tested during the visits organised to each one of the museums of the consortium and the results will be included in this document. The same report will compile the contributions from all the participating museums. These results will be used to produce the final versions and prototypes.

Report on internal procedures

This report will detail the internal procedures adopted for the correct development of the project. This includes the corporate identity, review process, communication protocols or appointment of the members of the different committees among others. It will also refer to the quality standards and best practice policies agreed by the consortium. This information will be subsequently updated in the Management Reports that will be submitted to the EC after each Reporting Period.

Report on system requirements for handheld devices

In this report the characteristics, features and functionalities of the most popular handheld devices will be summarised and compared. This in-depth analysis will allow taking a decision on the requirements to build the applications. Therefore, this document will serve as reference to define the overall strategy regarding the implementations for smartphones and tablets.

Evaluation of pilot exercises

This deliverable will critically assess the tools, applications and activities developed and tested in the museums. It will include recommendations to improve their performance, appearance, usability, etc. based on the experiences related to the pilot projects. We will take advantage of recorded audio and video, questionnaires, eye-trackers, etc. Findings of the participatory research groups will be shared via a network of accessible wikis.

Taking advantage of the experiences during the pilot exercises, this report will outline different strategies, initiatives or experiences that will favour the creation of an innovative ecosystem in cultural heritage with the developed tools. Final, revised setup after incorporating improvements based on feedback.

Report on the results of demonstration activities

This report will list the events held with the participation of stakeholders and end-users. Multimedia resources will be attached to the original document as well as the materials employed for the training courses. Feedback from the participants will be also included and evaluated by the partners involved.

Test setup – 1st version

In this first report, the progress of WP5 will be commented, paying special attention to the initiatives that the consortium has decided to implement after the first pilot exercise. Besides, it will include an initial test setup consisting of: (i) preliminary reliefs designed and produced with the software of task T5.1 (6 reliefs, one per museum), (ii) preliminary relief printer mediums (7 mediums, one per museum, one in the lab), (iii) preliminary setup of the tactile audio guide (7 setups, one per museum, one in the lab) and (iv) authored interactive content for the tactile audio guide (for the 6 reliefs).

Communication plan, activities and publications – 3rd version

This last version of the communication report will contain a complete list of activities and publications for the three years of execution. The impact will be critically assessed based on the evolution of the indicators, identifying successes and failures. Besides, new actions will be envisioned to ensure the continuation of the collaboration between partners to exploit the results.

Report on system integration – 2nd version

This second version corresponds to the updates after the feedback obtained as a result of the pilot exercise II but before the pilot exercise III starts.

Strategy for on-site demonstrations

The strategy adopted for the on-site demonstrations is presented before most events take place. It will deal with the activities to plan, how the practical applications will be shown to the visitors, dates, groups, staff in charge, advertisement, expenses, etc. Initial contacts will be made before as part of T7.1

Description of the developed games

This deliverable includes Unity3D created games that can be run on web through Unity3D Web Player. Games will focus on overcoming specific impairments for each of the identified groups providing them with different (best suitable) gaming and educational mechanics which will be identified together with the research partners in this Project.

Communication plan, activities and publications – 2nd version
