Abstract Immersive technologies such as the Augmented Reality (AR), which attaches the virtual information to the real environment, are extending the research space and attracting various domain experts including museum experts. Applying the AR technology in the 3D relic information visualization and helping visitors to visit the museum are also hot research issues. Current museum solutions are mainly based on the website, smart phone and Virtual Reality (VR) technology, AR museum applications are also mainly deployed on the smart phone. In this paper, an AR museum application based on the Microsoft HoloLens is presented, and the Microsoft HoloLens is a kind of head mounted device (HMD). Besides, multiple user interaction forms are supported in this solution, such as gaze, voice command, voice speech and hand gesture. Evaluation about this solution has also done, and the conclusion can be drawn that most participants appreciated this solution in clear interface and completion aspects.
