Research Platform for Cultural Institutions

We provide research tools and analytics services to help cultural institutions study how visitors engage with interactive and digital art installations.

Our Background

Founded by researchers and cultural technologists, Retail Motions s.r.o. was created to address the need for better research tools in cultural institutions. We recognized that traditional visitor feedback methods often missed important behavioral patterns in how people interact with interactive and digital art.

We developed our platform through collaboration with museums and galleries, combining sensor technology with established research methodologies. Today, we provide research services to cultural institutions seeking to better understand visitor engagement patterns.

Research Methodology

Our approach combines sensor-based data collection with established research methods to study visitor engagement patterns. We use unobtrusive monitoring systems that collect behavioral data while respecting visitor privacy and maintaining the integrity of the cultural experience.

Each research study follows ethical guidelines developed in partnership with cultural institutions and privacy advocates. Our goal is to provide useful research data while respecting both artistic vision and visitor experience.

Research Outcomes

Through our research studies, we have documented various patterns in visitor behavior, including changes in engagement duration, interaction frequency, and movement patterns. These findings have been used by institutions to inform their exhibition planning and visitor experience design.

We work with institutions of various sizes, from community galleries to international museums, providing research services that can be adapted to different contexts and research objectives. Our studies contribute to the growing body of knowledge about visitor behavior in cultural spaces.

Team and Expertise

Our team includes cultural researchers, data scientists, and technology specialists with experience in museum studies, visitor research, and analytics. We combine knowledge of cultural institutions with technical expertise in data collection and analysis.

Based in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, we work with cultural institutions across Latin America and internationally, adapting our research methods to different cultural contexts and institutional needs.
