Abstract
Tangible interaction in museums for children's education has always been an important area of interest. However, several museums are subject to local constraints which make the interactive experience of the visit unattractive. Through this research we have designed LURN, a journey-accompanying toy lamp for children aimed at enhancing the experience of visiting in Yangming Former Residence. Through prototyping, LURN was designed and evaluated at an exhibition to verify the possibility of interaction.
