Where does the street in the background of the Mona Lisa lead? What did the original inhabitants of eastern Canada live on? And why do the grapevines in Galicia seem to float over the ground? Museums and exhibitions, adventure parks and city tours, cinemas and zoos – all are so full of information that it is impossible to take in and understand everything. At the same time, not every visitor wants to take part in guided group tours – some prefer to learn and explore their own individual pace.

Sennheiser’s guidePORT system enables visitors to do just that, and so easily, comfortably, and flexibly that over 100 major world projects are already offering it to their guests. Because this system, with its earphones and wireless receiver, always knows where it is in the museum, and can independently call up the information relevant to that location in the language of the individual visitor’s choosing, of course. The result: knowledge reaches the mind through the ear – easily and directly.

The system

guidePORT is a wireless, digital visitor guidance system. On the visitor’s end, it consists of an intuitive, user-friendly, robust user device that sits easily in the palm of the hand (guidePORT) and a set of lightweight, ultra-comfortable Sennheiser earphones. The guidePORT comes in two types: an automatic playback type, and a manual playback type. With the former type, the system automatically plays the information, while with the latter, the visitors can key in what he or she listens to.

With guidePORT, your visitors learn more about your exhibition and exhibits than with other information systems, all with the greatest of ease and comfort. Because they do not have to hand-carry anything around with them, visitors always have both hands free.

guidePORT functions safely both indoors and outdoors.

guidePORT is as flexible as your exhibition needs it to be. You can change recording texts at any time, incorporate multimedia presentations, and, as with a public address system, add in extra live information whenever you like. guidePORT can even record and present statistical data on the behaviour of your visitors.

The guidePORT system is made in Germany by Sennheiser, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of complete audio solutions. Having been subject to repeated testing, this system is one you can rely on, at any time and in your individual conditions.
