The exploits of the Red Devils, the Euro 2000, Bruce Springsteen's or Johnny Hallyday’s concerts, the records set during the Memorial Van Dame… all these events that make Belgium and the King Baudouin Stadium proud are gathered into an interactive exhibit powered by Alterface’s technologies.
An interactive journey enjoins visitors to visit Brussels’ stadium in an original way. You go through the history and life of the stadium in an interactive and playful way thanks to a personalized discovery, adapted to your profile.
Relying on Alterface’s Trace™ technology, a network of electronic terminals follows up the visitors thanks to a barcode. The same system can work with magnetic cards, fingerprints, voice recognition or even eye recognition! A database registers the visitor’s profile and thereafter customizes the contents delivered to that specific visitor. The visit then becomes a walking quiz where one has to challenge his/her own knowledge or a thematized journey.
Trace™ is easy to install and can accommodate any number of stops-by on the journey. Thanks to other technologies from Alterface, one can even think of a system without physical kiosks! Trace™ main strength is its capability to evaluate the visitor’s actions: any interactive activity can be part of the design.
The visit of the stadium also proposes a Kiosk™ system. By simply pointing with their finger, visitors can control the system and select the desired options.
The aim was to customize the visit for every visitor. Thanks to collaboration between Tempora, Alterface and director Tanguy Cortier, the exhibition proposes, with the Kiosk™, an intimate discovery of all works related to the stadium. A simple hand gesture allows you to interview the various actors of the stadium life.
Kiosk™ relies on movement and gesture recognition algorithms. A stereoscopic camera recognized human bodies and their ‘components’. Thanks to this recognition, the computer becomes cleverer and can react to the visitor’s actions. It can even assist them, for instance by saying “Take care; you do not perform the needed action…” It offers the visitors an improved learning of the presented elements.
Kiosk™ is different from all other interfaces. Many technologies exist to detect human movements but none offers the same flexibility. For instance, let’s compare with an interactive carpet: if the visitor does not stand on the carpet, the system does not know someone is present. With Kiosk™, the visitor exists whatever his/her position is.
Kiosk™ offers an ideal solution for point of information systems: its dynamic and tracking capabilities, its interpretation of actions… and mistakes allow for customized games and information delivery.
