Experience art in a new and exciting way with VIOLA Multimedia Chatbot! Developed by the UNIFI Media Integration and Communication Center, this innovative web application allows users to interact with artworks using natural language and AI chatbots. With VIOLA, users can ask questions about the visual content and context of artworks in a museum.
"Whether you are an art enthusiast or just beginning to explore the art world, VIOLA is the perfect tool to enhance your experience. Simply type in your questions or talk to VIOLA to see how your requests are answered with ease."
The design of this application is motivated by the recent huge interest in chat-based interaction that has been popularized, for example, by Chat GPT.
Discover and test
VIOLA Chatbot Gallery, includes a limited selection of artworks provided by museums participating in the ReinHerit project (GrazMuseum, Cycladic Museum, Bank of Cyprus Cultural Foundation). Curators provided images and related content using a specific interface. They validated the descriptive content of the artworks to ensure quality responses. Unanswered questions will be saved to add more descriptive content and improve dialogue and chatbot interaction
Additionally, we are working with curators of the following small and medium-sized museums to test and add more artworks: Fondazione Musei Senesi IT, Giara Gipsoteca di Arte Antica e Antiquarium University of Pisa IT, Musei Civici di Reggio Emilia IT, Museo Capitolare Diocesano Foligno IT
