Abstract
Description
- This application is: (i) a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 16/905,222 filed Jun. 18, 2020 and entitled METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PERSONALIZING VISITOR EXPERIENCE AT A NON-PROFIT VENUE USING MACHINE LEARNING TO GENERATE SELECTION OR SEQUENCE OF NON-PROFIT VENUE LOCATION RECOMMENDATIONS, and (ii) a bypass continuation of International Application No. PCT/US2019/045220 filed Aug. 6, 2019, published as WO 2020/033354 on Feb. 13, 2020, which claims priority to U.S. provisional application No. 62/715,018, filed on Aug. 6, 2018, each entitled METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PERSONALIZING GUEST EXPERIENCE AT A VENUE. Each of the above applications is hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein in its entirety.
- This application relates to the field of personalizing visitor experience at a venue. More particularly this application relates to methods and systems for providing recommendations to visitors of a museum, zoo or other non-profit venue based on their interaction and enhancing participation in campaigns.
- Non-profit venues such as museums, zoos, exhibition halls, and parks are typically supported at least in part by philanthropic donations from members, visitors and other supporters. Donated funds are used in part to support projects, such as the creation, maintenance and ongoing care for exhibits, subjects, animals, curated objects, and other items that are presented or curated within a venue, as well as other projects and activities (e.g., archeological digs, restoration projects, habitat preservation projects, and many others) that take place away from a venue but are associated with or represented in a venue. Such venues may often have a large number of physical points of interest for a visitor, representing different topics, projects, activities and the like. For example, an art museum may have separate rooms for different art styles like renaissance art, impressionism, cubism, surrealism, pop art etc. Similarly, an exhibition may include groupings of sculptures based on countries of origin and a park may have different sections based on various activities or themes.
- Service providers and owners of non-profit venues such as museums, zoos, and parks are continually challenged to raise funds for their projects and other activities, as well as to offer favorable experiences for visitors. Traditionally, such venues have relied upon printed placards, audio-visual guides, mobile applications, and touchscreens to convey information to the visitors about various sections or specific objects like individual paintings, sculptures etc. However, conventional approaches contain generic information about items of interest and therefore fail to provide a personalized experience to a visitor based on the interests of the visitor. In turn, conventional approaches may fail to engage the personal philanthropic interests of a visitor, such as interest in supporting a particular project, as opposed to the venue or institution as a whole.
- Applicant appreciates a need for improved methods and systems for creating and presenting personalized information to a visitor of a venue, such as a non-profit venue, in order to encourage philanthropic activity, such as donations, by the visitor.
- Methods and systems are provided herein for personalizing the experience for visitors (referred to herein in some cases as guests) of a museum, zoo or other non-profit venue, such as based on interests, location, or other contexts, including interest in particular items or topics and philanthropic interests. In embodiments, the personalizing of visitor experience may make use of location information of the visitor within the venue (including time-based location information, such as dwell time), as well as other information like demographic information, information about interests of a visitor, information about activities of a visitor, or the like. Such information may be utilized to personalize the experience of the visitor in various ways, such as for providing personalized recommendations (such as suggested routes to points of interest or locations in the venue), campaign participation and other philanthropic opportunities, improved photography or videography services, personalized multimedia content, digital guides and the like.
- In embodiments, methods and systems for personalizing visitor experience at a museum, zoo or other non-profit venue include providing recommendations to visitors based on their interactions within the venue. In embodiments, interactions may be captured by one or more tracking systems within a venue, such as a location tracking system (e.g., using beacons, access points, or local proximity detection systems, such as NFC or Bluetooth systems) and/or interaction tracking systems (such as cameras, microphones, proximity detectors, motion detectors, touch detectors and the like). In embodiments, interactions may be tracked by analyzing the interactions of a visitor with a mobile device. In embodiments, interactions may be tracked by analyzing content captured by a mobile device, such as photographic, video and/or audio content recorded by the mobile device. For example, in embodiments, interactions may be captured by a mobile device, such as a mobile device of a visitor or one provided for use by a visitor. In embodiments, the recommendations may be provided by a software product running a program on a mobile computing device carried by the visitor, which when executed performs the steps of: analyzing the location of photographs taken by the visitor, analyzing the subjects of these photographs, analyzing the path of the visitor taken through the venue such as using RF beacons or other tracking systems, providing the information as an input, such as a feature vector, profile, or the like to a recommendation engine, and, using the results of the recommendation engine, suggesting other experiences for the visitor. In embodiments, the other experience is a donation or gifting opportunity related to an exhibit. In embodiments, the other experience is a visit to a different exhibit in the venue.
- Provided herein is, a method for personalizing an experience of a visitor at a non-profit venue, comprising: executing an application on a mobile computing device carried by the visitor, which, when executed, performs the steps of: analyzing a path of the visitor taken through the venue based on data from a set of tracking systems recording an interaction of the visitor with a specific exhibit or other item associated with an ongoing campaign; upon detecting that an interaction by the visitor with the specific exhibit or other item exceeds a threshold, providing personalized information relating to the visitor to a recommendation engine; and, using results from the recommendation engine, presenting a relevant call-to-action to the visitor to participate in the campaign. In embodiments, the personalized information includes a feature vector or visitor profile.
