The Florida Holocaust Museum’s Brand New Mobile Guide Audio Tour March 22, 2020 [St. Petersburg, FL] — The Florida Holocaust Museum has gone mobile! Enhance your visit to the Museum by using our brand new app. Listen to our audio tour, watch interviews with Holocaust Survivors, interact with artifacts, and much more! All you need is a pair of headphones and a smartphone or tablet. Thanks to our partnership with Dr. Davide Tanasi and his team from The Institute of Digital Exploration (IDEx) at the University of South Florida, app users can explore our artifacts deeper by interacting with three dimensional renderings. Digital photogrammetry is a technique that allows three-dimensional digital reconstruction of physical artifacts using a collection of high resolution photographs, a controlled light environment, and processed with specific software based on the pattern of recognition of algorithms. Interactive artifact models have been integrated into our app, so be sure to check out this amazing feature when you use our smartphone guide. Just download our app from the App Store or Google Play Store by searching for ‘The Florida Holocaust Museum.’ Or, you can access the web app by using the link: https://tour.fhm.yourcultureconnect.com/. To listen to the audio tour while touring the Museum, please use personal headphones or earbuds.
