The ‘Birds and Bees’ exhibition, at University SA’s new Museum of Discovery (MOD.) showcases cutting-edge research into bird and bee navigation, and its application into drone technology and machine vision. It creates a dynamic, interactive and immersive experience to raise awareness and convey knowledge in a fun, challenging and visually striking manner. As visitors walk through the tunnel, the animated vertical and horizontal stripes alter their perception of the surrounding environment and their ability to navigate through the space is manipulated.
ES worked closely with the MOD team and researchers to develop the concepts and ensure the integrity of the research is communicated in an engaging and intuitive manner. The collaboration process took place through a series of creative workshops to develop the concepts and ES undertook all detail design work along with fabrication, testing and commissioning and final installation.
