Abstract

New smart museums, integrating technologies like augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), interactive kiosks, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and AI tools, mark a departure from treating industrial history as a passive archival medium. The incorporation of these technologies allows for a shift from passive learning to actively experiencing history. This paper explains how these technological advancements improve visitor immersion, multi-dimensional learning regarding socio-economical shifts and identities, as well as deep processes associated with industrial machinery systems in context. Case studies from leading industrial heritage museums showcase how complex historical narratives are made relatable through the use of immersive simulations, digital reconstructive building, and dynamic data stream visualization technologies. The study also addresses the implications of adopting new technologies, including ease of use, content accuracy, and infrastructure expenditures. Lastly, the paper concludes smart museums serve as connectors between the appreciation of history and the understanding of technical concepts – a fundamental need for younger people born into the digital age [2].
