Hong Kong Science Museum needed an interactive way to explain placoderms beyond a static label. The goal was to deliver core facts (age, skin, anatomy, habitat) while keeping attention on the real fossil.

Exploit TOLED transparency without blocking the exhibit. Controls had to be discoverable, readable in a dim gallery, and usable for quick learning while guiding eyes between screen and specimen.

I storyboarded a “reveal” flow: minimal UI framing on the transparent screen, layered outlines/grids for orientation, and content modules for age, skin, anatomy, and habitat. Spotlights were sequenced to highlight the corresponding fossil areas during navigation.

Visitors could explore placoderm facts in-context, with visual confirmation from spotlight highlights instead of abstract diagrams. The exhibit reduced reading friction and made the fossil’s structure easier to understand through guided, step-by-step reveals.
