[Technology in Indian Museum Spaces.]
A study examining the shift from passive viewing to digitally interactive museum experiences, exploring how technology reshapes engagement, learning, and accessibility.
This research investigates the transformation of museum spaces from static environments of observation to dynamic, interactive systems shaped by digital technology. Focusing on Indian museum contexts, the study examines how tools such as AR, VR, and interactive media redefine visitor engagement across cognitive, emotional, and sensory dimensions.
Positioned at the intersection of exhibition design and user experience, the paper explores how participatory and experiential approaches replace traditional modes of passive viewing. It situates museums as evolving environments that prioritise accessibility, inclusivity, and personalised interaction, aligning with contemporary expectations of learning and engagement.
The study ultimately positions digital interaction as a critical component in the future of museums—where design must balance technological innovation with cultural context, accessibility, and curatorial intent.
