The Interactive Interface Accessible Circuit consists of an exhibit at the Mines and Metal Museum – MM Gerdau, within the principles of Universal Design (total accessibility), aimed at the physically impaired public.
The Wise Stones Circuit is the result of an international research agreement involving the Federal University of Minas Gerais – UFMG (LavMUSEU Virtual Laboratory), the Mines and Metal Museum (MM Gerdau) and the Polytechnic Institute of Bragança (IPB – Portugal), in an effort to carry out the IT (Information Technology) Project for High-Complexity Museums. While still in the prototype stage, it had also the participation of professors from the Aveiro University (Portugal). The Interactive Interface Accessible Circuit originated from that research work, having received, in 2016, an award from the Ibermuseums Program.
May this project contribute to the flourishing of a museum culture beyond the visual, enabling multisensory contact with the collections.
You are brilliant and have brought the light of knowledge to our lives. This is an enlightened work!
May this Circuit encourage museums to promote inclusion and accessibility even more, which are very important parts of their social function.
This project ended in 2020. Therefore, for up-to-date information about MM Gerdau, visit the museum’s website: mmgerdau.org.br
