From a working multisensory painting prototype to a growing collection of artworks. We have already developed and tested the first piece — now we are expanding this approach into a series of multisensory paintings, exploring how temperature, texture, scent and sound can become an integral part of visual art.

Project overview

Interactive Multisensory Artwork Demo

An online demonstrator showing how a multisensory XperiBase artwork can guide the viewer through touch, temperature, scent and sound.

How demo works

On screen, we show the logic of the active zones rather than fully recreating scent or temperature. In the real object, stimuli are activated through touch and the user’s physical presence.

How the real version works

1

The user touches a selected zone of the painting.

2

A sensor triggers the appropriate response: temperature, scent or audio.

3

Selected parts of the surface become cool or warm.

4

The painting works as a physical experience, not only as an image.

Note

This is a demonstration of the technology we are developing in order to fully realize the idea of a multisensory painting.

Launch the DEMO and experience it multisensorially

Works In Development

The projects below show possible directions for XperiBase development. We are designing objects that visitors will be able to explore through touch, scent, temperature and sound. We are currently seeking funding to move from visual concepts to physical realisation through research and development.
