Hublet enabled the Heureka Science Center in Helsinki, Finland, to offer targeted user interactive experiences for visitors by providing access to tailored content on Hublet Tablets.
Hublet Solution inspiring curiosity in science centers
Hublet is a self-service solution that enables easy and equal access to digital content for everyone of different ages and backgrounds. It is a perfect tool for public places such as science centres, museums, etc.
Hublet is proud to assist Heureka Science Centre in enhancing its visitors’ experience during their trips to explore extraordinary science events.
Heureka, the Finnish science centre, fosters creativity for people of all ages. Visitors can experience the joy of discovery through spectacular exhibitions, planetarium films, and educational events, which are now enhanced with Hublet usage.
Founded in 1989, Heureka is one of Finland’s most visited places. The science centre attracts over 300,000 people a year. After the launch of Hublet in Heureka, the demand for them has been growing even more.
Heidi Venho, Pedagogical Coordinator, and Anna Huusari, Science Camp Inspirer, told us their observations.
“We chose Hublet because it allows us to create different profiles, which is very important since we have many users. We have visitors from businesses, science camps, school groups and different events where we can use Hublet Tablets. For each one, we create a different user profile, which provides content based on that event, school group, or whichever desired segment, " explained Venho.
Hublet provides its own Hublet Docks, where the Hublet Tablets can be easily returned and charged due to the built-in charger. This eliminates the trouble of finding a suitable place to keep and charge the devices.
“Another big influence for Heureka was that the Hublet team has taken care of all the applications and software updates, which happen automatically.”
Anna Huusari recommends Hublet for every science center. In Heureka, children and science campers receive the Hublets very naturally. They are already familiar with IT from before; therefore, it’s also easy to use at the camp.
“I think Hublet’s best feature is multi-functionality. It can be used for many different programs without being difficult for the children,” said Huusari.
Hublet is generally very well accepted by younger generations and is always found as a handy device for completing different tasks, from entertainment to studying.
“Customised content available on Hublet Tablets can support and expand services offered by science centers in a modern way. The content can be adjusted to suit people of different ages, which is convenient for institutions with diverse customer groups.”
