The Largest Museum in the Netherlands

Commissioned by Museum Catharijneconvent and design agency Fabrique, Zooma developed an Android audio tour app that makes the hidden church treasures of the Netherlands accessible to everyone.

In a simple way, the audio tour tells surprising stories about the interior and works of art, without disturbing the experience. In an innovative way, a 'virtual museum layer' has been applied to Dutch churches.

Using an Android device, visitors can choose from a signposted tour or simply walk around freely. With the help of beacons, visitors receive measured information about the place where they are.

In close cooperation with the team from Fabrique and Museum Catharijneconvent, Zooma developed the audio tour app for the specific Android device in four intensive scrum sprints, installed beacons on location in the churches and carried out extensive tests.

Thirteen special churches and synagogues have opened their doors to the general public and together form The Greatest Museum of the Netherlands! Check out the details about this crazy assignment here!
