LIST powers interactive exhibitions at Musée Tudor

Musée Tudor in Rosport is turning history into a hands-on experience. Partnering with the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST), the museum has developed three interactive exhibits that blend cutting-edge technology with captivating storytelling. These exhibits dive into the world of energy, its scientific roots, and the impact of the Tudor family on the Rosport region and beyond.

An immersive energy wall

The centerpiece of the museum’s new offering is a dynamic wall display that combines visuals, sensors, and actuators to showcase the power of fire, wind, solar energy, and electricity. A glowing oven display captures the primal discovery of fire; a ventilator animates a sail to demonstrate the force of wind; a sun glides from behind a cloud on a linear bearing to illuminate solar power; and thunderclouds with lightning effects recreate the drama of electricity. Anchoring the experience is a steampunk-inspired console with a central display, paired with an interactive blackboard that invites visitors to actively explore how energy powers the world. Together, they offer visitors an engaging way to explore how energy shapes the world around us.

Modular energy workbench

Another exhibit invites hands-on experimentation with a mobile and modular energy workbench. Using tangible objects as input, visitors can interact with simulations, fostering a deeper understanding of energy production and its applications.

energy exploration for all

The final exhibit is a streamlined version of the energy wall, focusing on the input methods of the first installation but offering outputs solely through a display. This adaptation ensures a consistent educational experience while catering to different visitor needs and space constraints.

Christian Moll, senior engineer at LIST, concludes: “By combining scientific expertise with cutting-edge technology, the partnership we have with Musée Tudor is exploring innovative ways to tell stories and share knowledge. The new interactive exhibits offer visitors a journey through the evolution of energy and the role of research and innovation in shaping modern industry and society.”
