The Need: The Need is to create an interaction with the Museum and the people while increasing foot traffic. The Citizens of Durban. The importance is to increase the foot traffic of the museum.

The Scope. We have an interactive Website where the Citizens of Durban may upload Historical information of their Family past that had an impact in KZN or the EThekwini Municipality. The App will link to the Website, and once a person scans an artifact they will be forwarded to the website which will entail a time Line of the Artifact The website will lastly direct citizens to visit the museum for further reference

What’s next We plan to improve photo recognition on the App. The app will then take a pic of the building, and have a short historical reference of the Building will appear. After that, the app will show you where the nearest Museum with the information is located.

What’s next We plan to improve the Website by having a short time-lapse film of one Historical Building at a time which will appear after a visitor enters. After that, the website will show you a map of the nearest Museums where the information is located.
