Customer pain point
​One of the three major cultural and creative events staged at the Palace Museum, Jin Bang Ti Ming ("succeed in imperial examinations") is the museum's latest bold attempt to develop new forms of cultural businesses. It has partnered up with SenseTime in the development of two interactive exhibits for the event, Hao She Kao Sheng Xiang ("candidates in examination hall") and Kong Miao Ji Kong ("Tribute to Confucius at Confucius Temple"), incorporating an "AI" dimension into the traditional Chinese culture to create an immersive, interactive "time travel" experience for the audience. Combining history and culture with technology and art, the exhibition features an original and intriguing curatorial design that constructs an implied narrative based on numerous real-life artworks amid interactive high-tech installations, providing a totally unique viewing experience for the audience. The design highlights the three most popular education themes today - "knowledge changes destiny", "equality in education" and "every trade has its master".
Result
Applying "AR + AI" features of the SenseAR platform, SenseTime arranged two exhibitions of Hao She Kao Sheng Xiang and Kong Miao Ji Kong with AR-powered interaction, in collaboration with Palace Museum Culture. This partnership marks a pioneering fusion of technology and culture. As a bold attempt to incorporate an "AI" dimension into the ancient culture of China, the interactive exhibition introduces the traditional Chinese culture using innovative technology to diversify art forms and attract more young visitors, injecting fresh vitality into the traditional culture. The partnership with SenseTime enables Palace Museum Culture to present the traditional Chinese culture to the audience more intuitively applying the latest AI technology, demonstrating the value and importance of integrating culture and technology in the new era.
