博物館提供了民眾一個休閒及知識獲取的地方，世界各個先進國家，無不以增加其博物館收藏及服務做為文化、藝術及觀光事業提升的核心工作。因為資訊及網路環境的成熟，配合實體展示的數位環境，成為強化博物館服務的主要功能。在積極推展數位典藏國家型科技計畫後，台灣文化及藝術遺產的數位化已有顯著的成效，如何將這些文化精華，藉由數位化的應用服務功能提供給社會大眾，使得社會大眾都能有更深層的體驗文化，乃至於提升全民文化素養，為本研究的主要目的。
本研究將專注於博物館的應用環境，結合館內已建置的數位典藏內容及外部和館藏相關的數位內容，建構一套無線情境感知個人化數位導覽系統的雛形，系統最主要的目的在於讓參觀博物館的民眾能夠在一趟旅途中，利用個人化的導覽系統即可獲取更豐富且適性化的資訊，提升參訪者對博物館服務的滿意度。參觀民眾在無線的環境下，藉由情境感知系統及可定位的手持無線裝置的支援，由館內數位導覽系統即時地取得適當或參訪者個人所想要的資訊，並透過此參訪者端之無線裝置聆聽、閱覽及記錄展覽的文物資訊。
導覽系統與博物館數位內容結合後，能因時、因地提供給民眾一個情境感知導覽學習環境。系統能根據參訪者的導覽經驗與學習狀況、參訪者想獲得的資訊、年齡和語言提供最佳導覽路徑和最適資訊滿足參觀民眾的需求。除此之外，情境感知數位導覽系統必須要有根據環境變化，就能提供動態即時路線規劃的能力，才能有效提昇參訪者的導覽經驗與其知識的獲得。情境感知強調根據環境參數的變化即時反映資訊給參訪者。參觀民眾利用情境感知數位導覽系統進行參觀活動，能夠對展示內容有全面性瞭解，同時增加學習的效果；對博物館而言，一個有效的導覽，除了能增進參訪者的知識，適時解決其所遇到的問題之外，還能促進參訪者的展示間的互動，深化參觀經驗。

This research intends to build a prototype wireless context-aware tour guide system for the National Palace Museum. Such a system can be adopted by similar museums throughout the country to enrich the experiences of museum goers and enhance customer service levels for the museums. With the national historical treasure being digitized during the past few years, the National Palace Museum has established an extraordinary amount of digital contents. Such contents can be value-added by incorporating them with tour guide systems so that more information can be delivered to visitors during their short visits to the museum.
The context-aware mechanism established in the research will be able to provide user-, device-, and location-dependent information for the visitors. The main technology adopted for providing location-based services is 802.11b wireless communication system. The context-aware information will be recorded and provided by utilizing XML-based technology. By choosing these two technologies, the system may be constructed with reasonable cost and thus make the implementation practical and readily achievable.
