As the dawn of the artificial intelligence (AI) era unfolded, it became abundantly clear that AI was here to stay. After conducting a series of experiments, the transformative potential of incorporating AI into our AV++® system became apparent. Our unique personalization options were primed to be supercharged, taking visitor experiences to unprecedented levels.

Gone are the days of static media. We already have the key to delivering dynamic media using our QuickSilver® system, but with this, we discovered the power of delivering curated content based on specific parameters, offering dynamic and responsive media experiences. This revelation prompted us to explore the full spectrum of possibilities that this innovative technology could bring to the table.

In the process, we realized that AI offered an exceptional platform to deliver finely-tuned content to a diverse array of visitors, and to meet their expectations better than ever before. It opened up new avenues for personalization, and the ability to offer media in a multitude of languages. With AI, we are revolutionizing the way we deliver personalized, multilingual media experiences to each visitor.

We will continue to develop Alice™ as more and more technology that is required to provide all the potential for this patent pending technology becomes available. 

The Alice™ system, currently pending patent approval, is an innovative technology developed by Mad Systems that revolutionizes visitor experiences by providing dynamic and personalized media.

Alice™ delivers media to a new audience that is used to having the world's knowledge at their fingertips, and who are used to dynamic, personalized media as part of their everyday life. Alice™ is the cutting edge of media generation and delivery.

A simple use case:

Here’s a quick and simple example of what Alice™ does - the images are generated, as is the text.

First of all we feed a ‘body of knowledge’ - in this case we used is a rather minimal biography about Leonardo Da Vinci. This establishes the essential data (body of knowledge) that Alice™ should use for its primary knowledge. Again, note that this is a VERY simple example intended for an explanation of the concept only.

Initially, let’s assume that there is nobody at the display in the museum, and it just changes from one of his inventions to another, with ever-changing imagery and text, cycling until a person shows an interest in this exhibit.

Now a kid walks into the museum, and registers at the front using a kiosk. He has indicated that (1) he is 15, (2) he has a preference for science rather than history), (4) he’s not too much of a reader but would like to know the basics, and (4) he speaks Dutch.

When he gets to the exhibit about Da Vinci, there is an image of DaVinci working on the prototype of a tank in his workshop on the screen, and the following image appears:

Because that kid indicated he was into science, the background image is of Da Vinci working on a prototype of his tank.

The text means: "Leonardo da Vinci, not only a masterful painter but also a scientist. His paintings, such as 'Mona Lisa' and 'The Last Supper,' reflect his understanding of anatomy, light, and perspective, making him a true Renaissance man."

Next up is a 60 year old lady who indicates that she is interested in more detail, prefers history rather than science, and her language is Castillian.

A Greek 22-year old Greek college student walks in, and registers in the system. She indicates that she wonders who Leonardo Da Vinci is, and would like to know more about the man and his history. This is what SHE will get on the screen:

Which, translated in English, means: "Leonardo da Vinci, the embodiment of the Renaissance man, excelled as an artist, scientist, and inventor. His masterpieces, scientific curiosity, and revolutionary inventions continue to inspire and captivate the mind, leaving an indelible mark in history.”

Now her American nephew, at 5 years old, who is walking with her, would like to know what is really going on. Here is his screen capture:

Let's imagine a major Art museum in New York that has Alice™ technology installed. Now let's take a visitor named Maria who's visiting the museum, and she has been there before.

Upon entering the museum, Maria is greeted by a digital screen with several avatars, each promising a slightly different approach to the way a visitor will experience the museum. Maria greets one of the avatars. This is Alice™, a virtual docent who'll accompany Maria throughout her visit. Alice™ recognizes Maria through her museum membership card's barcode scanned upon entry. Alice™ has accessed Maria's profile, which includes her preferences set during her previous visits: her interest in Impressionist painting, her proficiency in both English and Spanish and her slight hearing impairment.

Alice™ begins by offering Maria a warm, personalized welcome in Spanish, her preferred language. Alice™ then suggests a curated tour of the Impressionist section of the museum, taking into account Maria's past interest in this art period. Alice™ also informs Maria about a special exhibit on Claude Monet that wasn't available during her last visit.

As Maria begins her journey through the museum, Alice™ provides her with a handheld device that communicates with the system. This device serves as her personal guide, providing information about the artworks in text format complemented by vibrant images, accommodating Maria's hearing impairment.

When Maria approaches an artwork, Alice™ dynamically generates and presents rich, contextually relevant information about the piece. For instance, when Maria stops in front of Monet's "Water Lilies", Alice™ displays text about the painting's historical context, Monet's technique, and even a little anecdote about the artist's garden in Giverny. The information is presented in an engaging manner, including comparisons with other works by Monet in the museum, and changes each time she visits, providing fresh insights.

The system also encourages Maria's interaction, asking her questions about the artwork and offering deeper dives based on her responses. For instance, when Maria expresses interest in the painting technique used in "Water Lilies", Alice™ provides further information on Monet's use of color and brushstrokes in his later years.

As Maria moves on, Alice™ continues to adapt to her journey. When Maria takes a break at the museum cafe, Alice™ suggests a short video about the museum's architecture, perfectly suited for a relaxing break.

Towards the end of her visit, Maria shows interest in a sculpture she hasn't noticed before. Alice™ quickly generates a path, guiding Maria to the sculpture while ensuring she doesn't miss other works of interest along the way.

Upon exiting the museum, Maria receives a personalized message from Alice™, thanking her for her visit and offering a digital summary of her tour, including the artworks she viewed and additional resources for further exploration.

This immersive and dynamic experience, provided by Alice™, makes Maria's visit to the museum a unique, personalized journey, heightening her engagement and leaving her eager for her next visit.
