Co-Design of Interactive Museographic Exhibits: the MIME case study

Cladistics is an abstract and counterintuitive classification of species. In the context of the Museum of Toulouse, it is one of the most important concepts presented to the visitors. To ease the understanding of this classification method and to stimulate the visitors discovering this thematic, we (museologists, designers, computer scientists ...) have envisioned new ways for supporting the exhibits explorations. We chose to explore the use of mixed interactive systems (Augmented reality, Tangible interfaces, etc.) and found that they constitute a good alternative to involve the visitors in such scientific thematic. In this paper, we present the development of MIME, a Mixed Interaction for Museum Environment: its aim is to experience the major principles of cladistics. This paper also describes and illustrates the design of this prototype: it was based on a process dedicated to the development of mixed interactive museographic exhibits. This paper then concludes with lessons learnt from the use of the design process and feedbacks about the prototype and its use into the museum.
