The Kestrel Drone

Artificial intelligence (AI) is redefining roads and skyways with advanced mobility technologies such as autonomous driving and Urban Air Mobility (UAM), suggesting a new paradigm for human mobility. This project sheds new light on drone mobility technology in terms of environmental aesthetics, focusing on global ecological issues. The Kestrel Drone is proposed based on a speculative scenario where "birds" become front-line users of drone technology and share their air routes with drones. At the exhibition hall, five Kestrel Drones were equipped with bird-mimicking wings and an AI tracker. The drones simulated a guiding bird for resident birds in a city. This project aims to evolve AI into a technology that has various parallel values that can coexist with non-human values, thus expanding the possibilities of technology.

A Performance Improvement for Indoor Positioning Systems Using Earth's Magnetic Field.

Although most indoor positioning systems use radio waves, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or RFID, for application in department stores, exhibition halls, stations, and airports, the accuracy of such technology is easily affected by human shadowing and multipath propagation delay. This study combines the earth's magnetic field strength and Wi-Fi signals to obtain the indoor positioning information with high availability. Wi-Fi signals are first used to identify the user's area under several kinds of environment partitioning methods. Then, the signal pattern comparison is used for positioning calculations using the strength change in the earth's magnetic field among the east-west, north-south, and vertical directions at indoor area. Finally, the k-nearest neighbors (KNN) method and fingerprinting algorithm are used to calculate the fine-grained indoor positioning information. The experiment results show that the average positioning error is 0.57 m in 12-area partitioning, which is almost a 90% improvement in relation to that of one area partitioning. This study also considers the positioning error if the device is held at different angles by hand. A rotation matrix is used to convert the magnetic sensor coordinates from a mobile phone related coordinates into the geographic coordinates. The average positioning error is decreased by 68%, compared to the original coordinates in 12-area partitioning with a 30-degree pitch. In the offline procedure, only the northern direction data are used, which is reduced by 75%, to give an average positioning error of 1.38 m. If the number of reference points is collected every 2 m for reducing 50% of the database requirement, the average positioning error is 1.77 m.

Effect of Exhibition Facilities, Professional Competence, and Green Procurement on Green Meeting, Incentive Travel, Convention, and Exhibition Industry Performance Measurement: A Case Study of the Exhibition Industry of Taiwan

In this study, a performance indicator scale was constructed to measure the performance of the exhibition industry, and a survey was conducted. The respondents were exhibition industry professionals, exhibitors, and their employees. A questionnaire containing the scale items was distributed to potential research participants, and 323 valid responses were obtained. Through a literature review, the relevant theories were compiled. Structural equation modeling was employed for analyzing the collected data. The exhibition hall facilities, marketing skills of organizers, environmental resources near the exhibition hall, knowledge and skills of exhibition industry professionals, and implementation of green procurement were all discovered to have significant positive effects on exhibition performance. The indicator scale was found to be appropriate for measuring exhibition industry performance. Therefore, it can be used as an indicator for measuring exhibition performance and for exploring the professional functions required from exhibition personnel. The findings also indicate that the implementation of green procurement can strengthen the value and significance of green exhibitions. On the basis of the results, suggestions are made regarding how the public sector can integrate stakeholders to further develop the exhibition industry. This study hopes to prompt the government to prioritize the active improvement of this industry.

Coupling coordination and spatial analyses of the MICE and tourism industries: do they fit well?

ABSTRACT The interaction and coupling between the MICE (meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions) and tourism is of great significance in promoting industrial competitiveness. This study proposes a conceptual index system using the entropy method and the coupling coordination degree model to evaluate the coupling coordination between the MICE and tourism industries. Employing a large-scale sample of 31 provinces in China during 2011–2020, we find that the increase in the number of MICE institutions and the exhibition hall scale are key factors in the promotion of the MICE industry, while the total number of travel agencies and the domestic tourism income are secondary indicators that have a significant impact on the tourism subsystem. The overall level of coupling and coordination of the MICE and tourism industries is relatively low, and their spatial differentiation is significant. Concerning spatial dependence, the degree of coupling and coordination between the MICE and tourism industries in different provinces is weak in terms of their global spatial autocorrelation. Furthermore, the overall degree of aggregation is not strong but significant from the perspective of local spatial autocorrelation. This study provides important theoretical, managerial, and policy implications for the coordinated development of the MICE and tourism industries.

Daylighting in a Space of a Modern Museum: Light Core

Based on the analysis of a number of the newest museums and museum complexes, one of the most striking and significant architectural techniques for building a daylighting system is presented, which received the name “light core” in the study. Sunlight acts as a focused, dense, and narrowly directed stream when this technique is using. The light core is the most important tool for shaping and creating a unique atmosphere of the interior space of a modern museum, especially in its public and recreational parts. On the examples of the works of T. Ando, M. Botta, D. Libeskind, R. Piano, F. Romero, as well as the architectural bureaus Ennead Architects, Perkins+Will show options for constructing and accentuating the light core in the main public spaces of the museum, as well as in the exhibition halls.

The Construction Technology of Column Replacement Integral Accumulation Sliding at Uneven Elevation for Steel Structures

Steel structures have been widely used in large public venues and super-high-rise buildings due to their strong spatial flexibility, good seismic performance, and beautiful appearance. For buildings with high lighting requirements, such as shopping malls, stadiums, and exhibition halls, a super-large day-lighting roof with light-transmitting steel structures is to be designed on top. However, it is impossible to directly hoist large steel structures with cranes in buildings, and the installation of steel structures at uneven roof elevations usually requires full hall scaffolding, which is inefficient and time-consuming. Based on the existing construction methods, this paper proposes a construction technology for column replacement integral accumulation sliding at uneven elevations for steel structures. This technology can improve the construction efficiency and reduce the construction cost of steel structures at uneven elevations.

Developing International Education - Classified Display of Chinese Gardens and Landscape Gardens Museum

Background and Aim: Promoting the development of international education is an important international education trend in the world today. It has had or is having a far-reaching impact on the education of all countries in the world, whether it is formal education or non-formal education (Gu, M., 2020). The "Course Plan for Technicians in Museums and Exhibition Halls" is mentioned in the book "Classification of International Education Standards" prepared by the UNESCO Education Statistics Bureau (1998). It can be seen that as early as the initial stage of international education development, the international education undertakings responsible for education, cultural inheritance, and exchange have attracted long-term attention to the museum industry. The combination of international education and museum display education can develop the way of international education, improve the exchange channels of international education, use the intuition and authenticity of museum display education, and improve the communication channels and paths of Chinese culture, which is an important way to improve the soft power of modern countries. Materials and Methods: This study uses descriptive research methods and attribute classification methods to try to classify garden cultural relics. The descriptive research method is simple. It interprets existing phenomena, laws, and theories through its understanding and verification, raises questions in a targeted way, and reveals the drawbacks. The law of attribute classification takes the social and scientific and cultural attributes of cultural relics as the standard to classify cultural relics. That is, the classification method is based on the nature of cultural relics. Cultural relics are the relics of human social activities and have cultural attributes. Therefore, when using the attribute classification method, this study clarifies the use and deep meaning of cultural relics to accurately confirm their nature, and then carry out research. Results: The development of international education is the evolution trend of education for the world and the public. Make good use of the current museum public service facilities education platform to build good communication and communication channels, which is conducive to the development of international education. Conclusion: Based on the existing collection classification principles and characteristics, we will innovate the classification display method, make new attempts to improve the classification display education method, and build a collection classification system in line with the functional positioning, collection attributes, and development planning of the library. It is a useful attempt to combine international education with museum education and museum classification to improve the mode of museum education, implement the essence of the curriculum plan of international education development museums and exhibition halls into specific practical work, and enrich the content of museum education through new exhibition classification.

Evaluating emotional and social interactions in museum liminal spaces: A case study of the National Museum of the Islamic Revolution and Holy Defense of Tehran, Iran

AbstractBackgroundThis study explores which architectural features of interstitial spaces improve visitors’ interactions with the overall museum space and with other visitors at the National Museum of the Islamic Revolution and Holy Defense in Tehran, Iran. Interstitial or liminal spaces are defined as “in‐between” spaces connecting primary spaces in a building that have a key role in relating humans to places.ObjectivesThis study asks which geometric features can increase the socio‐emotional interactions for visitors.MethodsTo answer the question, observations of behavior and body language were made at the study site. These data were analyzed based on body language science and neuroscience literature. Five in‐between spaces connecting exhibition halls were selected, and visitor behaviors were observed and analyzed using the Observer XT software by Noldus.ResultsResults showed that certain types of passages were associated with the highest levels of emotional interaction, while others are associated with the highest levels of social interaction.ConclusionsThe results of this study align with earlier neuroscience findings regarding brain activities in relation to certain geometries. The methods used in this study can be applied by architects and designers in their predesign planning and post design evaluation processes to improve socio‐emotional interactions for visitors.

Spatial Pattern and Drivers of China’s Public Cultural Facilities between 2012 and 2020 Based on POI and Statistical Data

In the context of globalization and the intensification of international competition, the construction of public cultural facilities has long been not limited to meeting the cultural needs of the people but has become an important initiative to shape the competitiveness of cities. This paper collected POI and socio-economic statistics from 2012 to 2020 from 285 Chinese cities and employed the coefficient of variation (CV), Gini index (GI), ESDA, and GeoDetector to analyze the spatial patterns and driving mechanisms of public cultural facilities. Findings: (1) Public cultural facilities in Chinese cities were featured by evident regional gradient differences and uneven spatial distributions, with a CV greater than 1.3 and a GI greater than 0.5 in both years. They also showed signs of aggregation at weak levels, with a Moran I of 0.15 in both years and a cluster pattern of “hot in the east and cold in the west”. (2) Different types of public cultural facilities had differences in their differentiation, aggregation, and change trends. The CV changed from 1.39~2.69 to 1.06~1.92, and the GI changed from 0.53~0.80 to 0.47~0.62, with the differentiation of libraries, museums, theaters, art galleries, and cultural centers decreasing gradually, while that of exhibition halls increased day by day. As the Moran I increased from 0.08~0.20 to 0.12~0.24, libraries, museums, art galleries, and cultural centers showed weak aggregation with an increasingly strong trend. Theaters and exhibition halls also showed weak aggregation but in a declining trend, with the Moran I changing from 0.15~1.19 to 0.09~0.1. (3) The five driving variables exhibit significant differences in their strength across time and across regions, with the economic and infrastructure factors being the strongest and the urbanization factor the weakest. There are significant differences in the strength of the driving forces among the factors, with the total retail sales of consumers, the number of subscribers to internet services, regular higher education institutions, and undergraduates in regular HEIs playing both direct and interactive roles as the core factors. (4) The 285 cities in China are divided into four policy zonings of star, cow, question, and dog cities. Star cities should maintain their status quo without involving too much policy intervention, whereas the core and important factors should be the focus of policy in dog cities and cow cities, and the auxiliary factors should be the focus of policy in question cities. This paper contributes to the in-depth knowledge of the development pattern of public cultural facilities and provides a more refined basis for the formulation of public cultural facility promotion policies in China and similar countries.

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE ART MUSEUM SPACE AS EMOTIONAL HEALING

This article explores the emotional healing function of art museum space and its potential impact on people's daily lives. Drawing on the theories of emotional therapy and art therapy, it is believed that art museum spaces can provide visitors with a unique transformation experience, helping them regulate emotions such as anxiety, boredom, and fatigue. This article explores how the layout of artist works and exhibition halls creates a visual and emotional experience through specific case studies, literature research, and questionnaire surveys. This experience is fundamentally different from the repetitive and rigorous spatial sense in daily life. Through the creativity of artists, different artistic spaces are created, bringing a new experience to the audience, allowing visitors to feel the charm of artistic creativity and obtain beautiful emotional value. Through case studies, it is proposed that good creative spaces can provide emotional therapy for visitors. Ultimately, this article demonstrates the potential of art museum spaces in changing emotional states and improving overall happiness.

Implementation of Virtual Reality for Photography Exhibitions

Art exhibitions are one way to communicate a work of art while displaying creations that can be enjoyed by visitors. However, it takes a very high cost to make a good exhibition hall, and many people are too lazy to go to the exhibition if it is just to look around. In this era of technology 4.0, many new innovations have emerged in human life, one of which is virtual reality. Virtual reality is increasingly being used as an alternative to visiting a place without having to come there directly. This research aims to create an Android system using virtual reality that provides an experience to users viewing works virtually. Virtual reality prepares a representative space to display works and also does not need to incur high costs while still providing quality and complete information from exhibition speakers. This research was built using Blender and Unity. In the application design analysis, there are four main stages: (1) analysis, (2) design, (3) product development, and (4) product testing. The results of the assessment conducted by the virtual reality lecturer obtained an average result of 89%. In addition, the results of trials for students obtained an average percentage of 94% and were included in the very good category. The results of this study show that AR has indeed proven feasible to be used as a learning medium in introducing photographic works with 2D and 3D Animation, and therefore the potential to make exhibitions in VR is also used for other courses and learning. The result of this research is that an Android-based virtual reality system can simulate the exhibition of artwork.

Charger and receiver deployment for trajectory coverage with delay constraint in mobile wireless rechargeable sensor networks

Wireless Rechargeable Sensor Networks (WRSNs) powered by radio-frequency radiation attract a lot of attention for their sustainability and convenience, etc. One focus is how to rationally deploy the key devices, such as receiver and charger, to improve the network performance and deployment budget. This paper considers a novel deployment problem for WRSNs in a two-dimensional space with static trajectories, deploying the minimum number of wireless chargers and receivers for mobile nodes, subject to the non-overtime updating probability requirement for mobile node at any location of the trajectories. This timeliness communication problem is tricky and NP-hard when involving the influence of three practical delays (retransmission delay, charging delay and competition delay). Therefore, a performance controllable discretization strategy is proposed, based on which the Greedy Heuristic (GH) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based approximate solutions are introduced. The execution process and time complexity of these two solutions are analyzed, and then the numerical results of extensive simulations are introduced to verified the scalability, accuracy and efficiency of the two solutions. As a result, the GH solution has better deployment success rate and efficiency, and is the recommended solution for the novel problem. Finally, two real-life scenarios (indoor exhibition hall and hospital interior road) are introduced to further verify the robustness of the two solutions under the practical challenges of uneven density of mobile nodes, restricted deployment locations and occlusion of wireless links.

Designing virtual reality based 3D modeling and interaction technologies for museums

In China, museums are of great historical significance, which can greatly improve the country's cultural standards. With the advent of new media and economic times, people's behavior and way of thinking have changed, so they are less and less interested in traditional museum displays. How to create a museum moving image that meets the aesthetic and experiential requirements of the general audience has become critical. The purpose of this paper was to study the design of moving image displays using virtual reality (VR) in museums. This paper proposed a VR-based 3D modeling technology and human-computer interaction algorithm. Both of these technologies were an important part of VR technology. It can manage museums digitally and display objects clearly in two-dimensional and three-dimensional spaces. According to the experimental results of this paper, among the 80 participants, 40% were very satisfied with the exhibition hall experience of Chengde Mountain Resort Museum, and 35% were only moderately satisfied. It can be seen that most people find it very attractive to integrate VR technology into the showroom experience. Therefore, it is very important to integrate VR technology into the dynamic image display of the museum.

Research on Intelligent Service Construction of Exhibition Venues Based on the Needs of Exhibitors

Under the background of the information age and the post-pandemic era, the construction of smart exhibition venues has become a hot topic in the exhibition industry. Smart service, as an important direction for the construction of smart venues, has aroused scholars to make relevant discussions. However, there have been some researches on specific exhibition intelligent services, little researches on exhibition hall intelligent services from the perspective of users. In addition, there are also various subjects using intelligent services in the exhibition hall. As a component of exhibitions, the subjects using intelligent services can be divided into exhibition organizers, exhibitors, visitors, service providers, etc. Due to the diverse types of intelligent services required by various subjects, the demand for intelligent services may also vary. Therefore, research on intelligent services in exhibition halls should also vary according to the needs of each subject. Exhibitors, a bridge between organizers and visitors are playing an important role in the exhibition. The income of the organizers is closely related to the satisfaction of exhibitors, which has great significance for the future development of the exhibition. In addition, from the perspective of visitors, exhibitors are the most important element of the exhibition. As one of the important exhibition subjects, exhibitors have their own foundational and particular needs for smart services. Based on the perspective of exhibitors’ needs, this research utilizes literature survey and interview methods to define exhibitors’ demand indicators for smart services in exhibition venues, and combines the Kano model to design a two-factor questionnaire to conduct research. After collecting the data, compare it to the Kano model classification comparative table to classify the demand attributes of the demand indicators, and then prioritize all demand indicators through the Better-Worse coefficient. This study found that exhibitors’ demand for smart services in exhibition venues is mostly type of charismatic demand, and the demand for smart parking lots and mobile charging stations, cloud display, and audience behavior data is of higher priority. Therefore, this research suggests that exhibition venues and exhibition organizers should use the above-mentioned higher priority demand indicators as the core to build a smart service system for exhibition venues. This research provides new ideas for the construction of smart exhibition venues and at the same time makes up for the deficiencies of academic research in this area.

Senses and Emotion Experience at Aceh Tsunami Museum

The purpose of this research is to find out how exhibitions in museums that use various senses can evoke the emotions of visitors and provide visitors with a more memorable spatial experience. In 2004 there was a very powerful Tsunami in Aceh. This incident is remembered in one of the museums designed by Ridwan Kamil, located in Aceh. This museum captures the moment Aceh Tsunami and also tries to present these past events as an exhibition area in a simulation room. This simulation room uses a multisensory delivery method involving several senses. This simulation room is known as the Tsunami Alley. The article discusses what feelings are involved in conveying messages from this space, and the spatial and emotional experience visitors feel. The method used is descriptive qualitative, and the object of this research is the Tsunami Alley of Aceh Tsunami Museum. According to the analysis results, sensory and emotional processes are inseparable and support one another. The application of integrated senses in the museum space will further evoke visitors' emotions and strengthen the message's memory. The results of this study are expected to be the development of design references regarding the delivery of news and information using multisensory methods to provide an impressive space experience in exhibition halls.

COMPUTATIONAL DESIGN FOR ARCHITECTURAL SPACE PLANNING OF COMMERCIAL EXHIBITIONS - A FRAMEWORK FOR VISITORS INTERACTION USING PARAMETRIC DESIGN AND AGENT-BASED MODELING

Using computational tools for evaluating spatial layouts of commercial exhibitions provides an opportunity for assessment of performance before execution. However, most evaluation techniques take into consideration only the physical qualities of the built environment, excluding important factors such as crowds. Crowds are essentially dynamic obstacles that hinder visibility and can induce flight response, but they are also a sign of good exposure when in reasonable amounts. This is mostly due to the challenge of quantifying spatial qualities such as users’ interaction and movement for computational representations. This paper proposes a framework using agent-based modeling for simulating user interaction in commercial exhibition spaces combined with a parametric representation of the built environment. The framework is then evaluated by applying it to a case-study of three layout scenarios in a generic exhibition hall. The simulation results show that layouts with vertical aisles, and less horizontal aisles have better footfall distribution.
