QR codes never really made it to museums as widespread as I imagined they would – but perhaps it’s better that way as NFC will move in and take over that space as soon as cel phone catch up… Once again, Europe is setting the stage…
If you are among the first proud owners of an NFC enabled phone, then make sure you take full advantage of this cutting-edge technology by tapping the tags around both our museums to help you make the most of your visit.
NFC (Near Field Communication) is a new mobile phone technology which allows users to share information with a simple tap of a device. Working with Nokia (external link), we’ve introduced NFC to both our venues, and with an increasing number of NFC enabled handsets available in the UK, we’re excited to be among the first public organisations to use tomorrow’s technology today.
