Nakdonggang National Institute of Biological Resources
Conversational AI exhibition guide on kiosks and mobile devices
Nakdonggang institute opened an AI exhibition guide with support for 30 languages
Problem
Visitors needed exhibition information at their own pace and in their preferred language. Guided tours alone did not cover every visitor's questions.
Approach
The institute began a conversational AI guide on October 1, 2026, through kiosks and mobile devices. Visitors could ask questions about exhibits and obtain facility and route information. The service operated alongside human guides.
Results
Takeaway
The institute expanded the ways visitors could obtain information. It had not reported visitor satisfaction or measured accessibility gains.
