Looking for great examples of interactive technology being used by museums and galleries
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

The Ontario Science Center continually has some outstanding examples of interactive technology. They do an amazing job of engaging visitors and explaining science in a fun, interactive way.
One of the best things about their displays is that they cater to a wide range of ages. Kindergardeners through adults will find some interesting things here.
If you happen to be responsible for the planning and implimentation of interactive displays, I highly reccomend that you take the time to travel to Ontario and visit the Science Center.
