"Why not “loan” a PDA to your museum visitors as a way to attract new revenues and appeal to new and existing museum-goers alike! Let a handheld device enhance the museum experience by guiding, informing, educating and entertaining the whole time through. The MIG (Mobile Interactive Guide), developed by Flick Software and its partners, embodies a rugged hardware device coupled with the software required to make this a powerful new force in the museum vertical.
Imagine the MIG leading folks to items of interest; expanding on various exhibits by running related multi-media audio and video clips; having pop-ups at appropriate times indicating show start-times or even cafeteria specials; absorbing people of all ages in entertaining contests and games. Let Flick Software pull together the necessary resources to add an exciting new dimension to the museum experience."
