[Flash] Taking museums online - while maintaining a high-quality experience
One of the most interesting museums in Washington, D.C., the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum is ehancing vistors’ experience by creating interactive kiosks that let visitors find detailed information about each exhibit as you tour the museum.
To extend their reach they’ve leveraged the same content, powered by Flash, on their web site.

Very cool - thanks for sharing Mike - I really dig this interactive exhibit type of stuff - The team I work with at Talisman Interactive recently wrapped up the first phase of a project - where we designed, developed and deployed 9 interactive exhibits that feature Flash content in custom kiosks for the Fair Mount Water Works Interpretive Center - http://www.fairmountwaterworks.com/ - we are also working to put some of this content online soon.
A friend of mine Todd Coulson at haleypro also just finished deploying a similar interactive exhbitis system built with flash and director for the Maryland Science Center at Baltimore’s Inner Harbor - http://www.mdsci.org/
Museums and destination type venues are a perfect match for Flash.
Love to see any other similar examples of this type of work involving flash and interactive exhibits/kiosks.
