Abstract

Museum visitor experiences differ from person to person, from cognitive to affective experiences. Progress in information technology has provided us with the opportunity to improve both the quantity and personalization of cultural information, privileging the cognitive experience against the affective. Computer vision promises to be an extraordinary enabling technology for augmenting visitor experiences, bridging the affective gap by understanding the visitor´s individual cognitive needs and interests and his or her situational affective state.
