Case Study: Navjivan Trust enhances museum visitor engagement with Cygnet Infotech’s beacon-based mobile app

Beacon Mobile Application For Museums With Extensive In-House Location Based Features And Custom CMS

Navjivan Trust, a non-profit publication house founded by Mahatma Gandhi, manages a large museum in India that attracts around 700,000 visitors and houses extensive Gandhi-related artifacts, letters, books, and galleries across multiple sites. The trust needed a better way to educate visitors, share ongoing activities and events, and provide in-house navigation across the museum, so they turned to Cygnet Infotech for a beacon-based mobile experience.

Cygnet Infotech built a scalable iOS and Android mobile app integrated with BLE beacons, GPS tracking, geo-fencing, push notifications, and a custom CMS using Angular and Node.js. The solution delivered proximity-based content, event alerts, audio tours, museum navigation, and donation capabilities, resulting in a 15% boost in donations and 20% more footfall, while also giving visitors a more interactive and informative museum experience.
