About Curio: explore, learn, grow
Enhance your visit to a host of participating visitor attractions, including Museums, Galleries, Historical sites, Zoos, and many more venues.
Curio gives you greater access to displays and exhibits to make your visit more informative, accessible and enjoyable.
Use your Smart Phone or Tablet to tap in or scan the code of the exhibit that interests you, into the Curio app. The display information is immediately presented on your screen. Exhibit information may include a gallery of captioned images, videos and audio clips.
For maximum accessibility, the Curio app allows you to alter the text size, toggle the contrast for improved readability, and can even read the display information aloud.
Try the 'Explorer Game'. Solve a clue to an object and scan it's QR code to bring up the next clue. Solve all the clues and, who knows, there may even be a reward at the end.
The History function allows your previously scanned objects to be re-visited, even away from the venue.
Translation services are included for common european languages.
The Curio App is designed for maximum ease of use, with a clear and unfussy interface and with all the accessibility and 'Explorer Game' functions available through a single button tap.
Now you can overcome the traditional problems associated with exhibit display information :
Labels are often placed low down to accommodate children and disabled visitors (and rightly so)
Exhibits and their information may be set far back in the display
Font size and labels may be very small, where space is limited and item descriptions are extensive
Displays with light sensitive exhibits have low lighting and hence poorly lit information
Crowds around popular exhibits can make accessing the descriptions difficult
