ETH Tours takes the classic audio guide to a whole new level. All visitors need is their own cell phone. Thanks to the numerous possibilities offered by smartphones, all forms of content (text, video, audio) are supported and supplemented with innovative features such as augmented reality features and a selfie module.
This means that knowledge is freely accessible to everyone at any time and presented in an interactive way.
Accessibility is an important issue at ETH Zurich, and is implemented in all areas of the university. The ETH Tours app also impresses with its well-designed accessibility features, which have even won an award at the Best of Swiss App Awards.
