Museums are evolving. Today’s visitors are no longer satisfied with static interpretation panels or passive audio guides—they expect participation, immersion, and meaningful interaction.
To support museums exploring next-generation visitor engagement, Ailias is introducing an invitation-only pilot scheme, the conversational museum pilot, that allows a select group of institutions to host a life-size conversational hologram of a historical legend—at a fraction of the usual cost.
This limited pilot is designed to help museums test, prove, and showcase a new form of storytelling that blends education, theatre, and artificial intelligence into a single unforgettable experience.

What Is the Ailias Conversational Hologram Pilot?

The Ailias conversational museum pilot scheme enables museums to temporarily install a fully interactive, voice-responsive digital character that visitors can speak to naturally and in real time.
Unlike pre-recorded projections or push-button displays, these holograms:

• Listen to visitor questions
• Respond conversationally using AI
• Adapt tone and content for different audiences
• Encourage curiosity, dialogue, and repeat engagementEach hologram is housed in an Ailias Holobox, a self-contained, museum-ready installation designed to integrate seamlessly into galleries, foyers, and exhibition spaces.
  The conversational museum pilot runs for four weeks and is fully supported end-to-end by the Ailias team.

  Why This Conversational Museum Pilot Is Invitation-Only

  A standard one-month Holobox installation typically costs in excess of £20,000, reflecting the complexity of the technology, character development, logistics, and support involved.

For this pilot, Ailias is offering just three museums a heavily reduced, flat-fee rate of £1,500 + VAT, in exchange for:

• Full PR usage rights
• Joint promotional content creation
• A co-branded case study

This is not a discount product or limited functionality version—it is the same full experience, offered under a collaborative showcase model.

Once the three pilot slots are filled, this offer will not be repeated in this format.

Why Museums Are Choosing Conversational Holographic Displays

Early adopters of conversational digital characters are seeing immediate benefits across multiple areas:

Strong First-Impression Impact

A life-size talking figure naturally draws attention and curiosity—often becoming the most photographed element in the space.

Deeper Educational Engagement

Visitors learn through dialogue, not monologue. Asking questions leads to better retention and understanding.

High PR and Shareability Value

Conversational installations generate:

• Media interest
• Social sharing
• Word-of-mouth amplification

Low-Risk Proof of ROI

The pilot allows museums to evaluate:

• Visitor response
• Educational effectiveness
• Operational suitability

At the end of the four weeks, museums can explore long-term rental or ownership options, based on proven results rather than assumptions.

Designed for Modern Museums and Heritage Spaces

The Ailias pilot is particularly suited to:

• National and regional museums
• Heritage attractions
• Science and discovery centres
• Cultural institutions seeking new audiences

The Holobox format is self-contained, requires minimal floor space, and does not disrupt existing exhibitions.

Next Steps: Confirm Your Ailias Pilot Slot

Due to the limited number of available pilots, participation begins with a short 20-minute suitability call to confirm:

• Location and visitor flow
• Character relevance
• Timing and logistics

Museums that qualify can secure their pilot slot immediately.
