With the increasing global cultural exchanges, museums, as the core venues for cultural dissemination, the quality of their tour services directly affects the visitors' experience and their understanding of culture. The traditional tour mode always has various problems: limited reception capacity, unable to keep up with multilingual services, and incoherent visiting experience. These problems have made audio tour technology the key for museum upgrades. For museums that want to improve efficiency, be professional, and be suitable for international audiences, choosing a set of audio tour equipment that suits their scenarios not only saves operational costs but also enables cultural dissemination without being restricted by language and space.
Are you hit by the core problems of museum tours?
Unable to handle peak traffic and insufficient services
Whether it's a large comprehensive museum or a niche specialized exhibition hall, it tends to be crowded during peak seasons. The traditional manual explanation is limited by the size of the team and the number of sessions, which simply cannot meet the needs of individual visitors and multiple teams visiting simultaneously. Many visitors miss the stories behind the exhibits because they don't hear the explanations. What's more troublesome is that when multiple teams visit together, the audio voices interfere with each other, which not only disrupts the quiet visiting atmosphere but also makes it difficult to hear the explanations clearly.
Multilingual services are a must, but the cost is too high
For museums that receive international audiences, multilingual tours are a basic requirement. However, hiring professional multilingual tour guides is very expensive, and there are few people who know the lesser-known languages, making it impossible to cover all the needs. Traditional audio tour equipment is fixed in language, difficult to update content, and unable to meet the needs of different national audiences. In case of adding lesser-known languages temporarily, it's impossible.
The visiting experience is too rigid and lacks appeal
Nowadays, when visitors go to museums, they are no longer satisfied with just "listening along". They want to actively explore. But in the traditional tour mode, visitors can only follow the tour guide's rhythm. They can't even look at the exhibits they are interested in, let alone understand the details. This uninteractive and personalized experience is difficult to capture the visitors' interest, especially failing to attract young people.
Museum audio tour, focus on these points
A good audio tour system for museums is centered around four words: stable, accurate, easy to use, and comprehensive. Technically, the anti-interference ability is the foundation - museum exhibition structures are complex, and there are many exhibits, so wireless signals are easily blocked or interfered with. High-frequency band transmission and digital noise reduction technologies must be used to ensure clear sound quality and stable signals. Secondly, the positioning must be accurate. Self-service tour equipment must precisely know where the visitors are to achieve "play as you go", without missing or repeating explanations. Additionally, supporting multiple languages, long battery life, and convenient management and content updates are also must-haves for museums when choosing equipment.
From the industry trend, guided tour devices with intelligent and networking functions are increasingly popular. Systems that support cloud content updates, multi-device linkage, and analysis of visitors' visiting data can help museums better understand visitors' needs, optimize exhibitions and tour services, and achieve better cultural dissemination effects.
Yingmi's two best-selling products, precisely adapted to museums
Among many audio tour brands, Yingmi has been in business for 18 years, with deep technical accumulation and many museum service experiences. Its products have passed international certifications such as EU CE and RoHS and are sold worldwide all year round. Many museums choose it. These two products are particularly suitable for museum needs.
M7 Pure Automatic Sensing Tour Machine: The "Personal Tour Guide" for Museum Visitors
This one is specifically designed for museum visitors. It uses the RFID-2.4G non-interfering star distribution system, which can precisely switch signals within about 1 meter. Visitors wearing the device walk to the exhibit and, without any manual operation, automatically play the explanation content, perfectly solving the problem of "having to follow the tour guide". Its shell is pure white lacquered paint, with a simple and elegant design that perfectly matches the cultural atmosphere of the museum.
Multilingual support is also reliable. The M7 defaults to supporting 8 languages and can be customized with minor languages according to the museum's needs, effectively solving the problem of a shortage of multilingual tour guides. The device is a chest-mounted type, very lightweight, and has sufficient battery life. Audiences won't worry about running out of power for a whole day. Additionally, the signal trigger it comes with doesn't require wire power supply. One battery can last for three years, significantly reducing the maintenance costs for the museum in the later stages.
E8 Team Tour Guide System: The "Savior" for Multi-team Reception
If the museum frequently hosts teams and often has multiple teams visiting simultaneously, the E8 team tour guide system is definitely a must-have. This system uses SOC embedded integrated digital noise reduction technology, which can minimize environmental noise and ensure that the audience can hear clearly. It also adds 4GFSK signal modulation and CRC digital encryption technology, which can effectively block external signal interference. Even if multiple teams are in the same exhibition hall, they can each give their own explanations without any interference.
The E8 transmitter supports two modes. It can be used for manual explanations or playing pre-recorded explanations. The tour guide can switch flexibly according to the team situation. The receiver is ear-mounted, weighing only 16 grams, and is very comfortable to wear. It can automatically search for signals and remember channels, and audiences can connect immediately after turning on the device, making it very easy to use. The system's receiving range can reach 200 meters. Even in large museums with wide exhibition halls or multi-story buildings, the signal is very stable. The accompanying charging box can not only charge in batches but also has an ultraviolet disinfection function, perfectly meeting the museum's high requirements for hygiene and safety.
It is worth mentioning that Yingmi is a national-level high-tech enterprise with many core patents. The product quality has undergone strict testing and has a complete service chain from research and development, production to sales, installation, and after-sales. For foreign customers, it can also respond quickly within 90 seconds, provide free sample testing, professional installation and commissioning, and lifelong technical support, completely eliminating the need to worry about subsequent usage issues.
