This paper proposes an approach for switching the level of abstraction for digital exhibition systems to provide an understanding of exhibit mechanisms. In conventional museum exhibitions, curators have tried to convey knowledge to visitors by displaying real exhibits. However, such conventional methods cannot effectively explain how a mechanism works. In contrast, digital media can be used to enhance delivery efficiency by providing interactivity to express the dynamic aspects of the exhibit. Based on this idea, we introduce the Digital Display Case system and interactive contents, whose level of abstraction can be changed at the Railway Museum (Japan). Our user study shows that switching the level of abstraction helps visitors understand the mechanisms of a rail car pendulum bogie. |
