Aestheticodes technology is a computer vision technology that is used to recognise the physical images based on
their topology rather than their geometry like one-dimension barcode and QR code (quick response). As a result,
designers will have more flexibility to design any images and shapes which have aesthetically a beautiful
patterns and embed digital information to them. For this purpose, designers are required to follow a simple set of
rules by using a certain number of regions and blobs. The Aestheticodes app is a free app which is available on
iOS and Android.
Therefore, samples from each collection designed manually and embedded to their corresponding information
that provided in this website. Information in this website can be accessed through scanning the artcode or
through the website itself.
It is important not to ruin the aesthetic of museums and art galleries by using technologies that might have a
negative impact on the appearance of those places and that are non-meaningful to visitors. In addition, it is
necessary to consider interaction and usage of a technology together not just usage. Therefore, the aim of this
project is to support museums and apply a technology that can both functional highly and to enrich the museums
with aesthetically beautiful elements. More specifically, to enhance visitors to interact with large surfaces
display in a form of a map and engage them with new experiences and interactions. The main motivation of the
map is because the vast majority of museums contents are local. This can be achieved by using the
Aestheticodes technology to engage and enhance visitors experience through both the interactive functionally of
the technology and the aesthetic of decorative patterns on the map.
