Ailias shares how it will showcase its full-body digital characters at the upcoming M+H Show 2026.
As audience expectations evolve, museums are facing a clear challenge: how to move beyond passive interpretation and create experiences that feel immediate, personal, and memorable.
At Ailias, that challenge has shaped everything we’ve built over the past year.
This May marks our first appearance at the Museums + Heritage Show 2026, where we’ll be demonstrating a new generation of conversational, full-body digital characters—live on Stand E9.
From Interpretation to Interaction
Visitors today don’t just want to read about history—they want to experience it.
When visiting our stand, you won’t see a passive display or pre-rendered video. You’ll encounter fully interactive historical figures capable of holding natural, unscripted conversations in real time.
This is not a concept or prototype. It’s a working system designed for deployment across museums, heritage sites, and exhibitions.
New Characters, Designed for Public Engagement
We’ll be unveiling new characters built specifically for high-footfall public environments— combining visual realism with contextual intelligence.
Visitors can ask questions, explore stories, and engage in a way that feels natural and intuitive. Figures such as Nikola Tesla are brought to life not as static exhibits, but as responsive personalities.
In some cases, these interactions extend beyond conversation—creating memorable, shareable moments that deepen engagement and increase dwell time.
Built for Real-World Museum Deployment
Innovation alone isn’t enough. Museums need solutions that work operationally. Ailias systems are designed to be:
- Reliable in public-facing environments
- Scalable across multiple sites
- Simple to manage and update
- Compatible with existing exhibition workflows
Everything demonstrated at Stand E9 reflects practical deployment—not future speculation. Introducing the Ailias Partner Programme
Alongside the technology, we’re also launching the Ailias Partner Programme, enabling museum consultants, agencies, and experience designers to integrate conversational characters into their own projects.
Visit Us at Stand E9
If you’re attending the Museums + Heritage Show, this is your opportunity to experience conversational heritage technology first-hand.
We’ll be running live demonstrations throughout both days—but for a more focused discussion, we recommend booking a dedicated appointment in advance.
Book a Meeting in Advance
We expect strong interest across both days, particularly from institutions exploring new approaches to visitor engagement.
If you’d like a dedicated walkthrough, we recommend booking time in advance to:
- Experience the system without queues
- Discuss your specific use case
- Explore implementation, timelines, and costs
See It for Yourself
The shift toward interactive, conversational experiences is already underway across the sector.
The question is how to implement it in a way that is authentic, scalable, and operationally viable.
Visit Ailias at Stand E9 where you can test that directly.
