Our application entitled as A Successful Mine Rescue from 1888 was housed in the new permanent exhibition of the Mining Museum, which is the exhibition place of the Béla Dornyay Museum in Salgótarján.

Our professional partner in the implementation of the project is the Graphasel Design Studio.
The main goal of the e-Museum project was to create a system for the presentation, inventory and management of digitized museum objects. We created all applications together with our partner, the Fpsystem company, which was responsible for implementing the museum collection management system called Muzeo, the repository and museum external queries. Our company created an aggregator that allowed direct metadata flow from the database system to the portal, set up also the website and platform for the Mining Documentation Center.
In the development project of the two sites of the Kiskunság National Park, the House of Nature and the Bugac Shepherd Museum, we are working on the design and construction of several interactive stations and touch-screen kiosks.

On 9th October 2018 Gül Baba Turbe was reopened in Budapest, Hungary with the participation of a Turkish and a Hungarian delegation. The project is an example of unique cultural cooperation between Hungarians and Turks.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán cut the ribbon of the Turbe after almost 3 years of renovation and construction work.
One of the novelties in the Turbe area was the establishment of Gül Baba Museum. Besides a nice physical exhibition area, a digital exhibition can be seen on a kiosk and displays. The content was prepared by the stakeholders while Qulto provided the technical framework of the whole digital exhibiton.
At the entrance of the Museum visitors find a touch screen kiosk with a historical map of Budapest in Turkish times. Mosques, bridges, districts and towers are indicated with different colours and icons. Visitors can zoom into the map to see the details of a particular area. In the future the content of the map will be enhanced with deeper explanations related to the places.
While visitors walk ahead, they can see two displays with rich cultural content. The first one is equipped with a software called Qulto Timeline showing the story of the Turbe from 1541 to 2018. Visitors can slide to different dates for information, pictures and soon videos. The other monitor displays architects and their plans of the Turbe.
There is a small monitor placed in a showcase where a video is displayed. The video was prepared by Asir Proje by collecting some old pictures and videos showing visits of Turkish delegations to the Turbe.
We would like to thank both the Turkish and the Hungarian stakeholders of the project, especially TIKA and Asir Proje for the opportunity.
We have been also delighted to be invited to a Business Forum organized by Turkish and Hungarian partners in contribution with ALX Hungary. The Turkish and Hungarian delegations also attended the business meeting. Qulto is happy to facilitate Turkish-Hungarian partnership with the digital developments for the Turbe and other projects.

Az MNM OMMIK részére olyan e-learning portált készítünk, melyen múzeumi szakembereknek szóló online képzéseket indítanak. Az első kurzus – az EMMI-vel közreműködésben – a múzeumi intézményrendszer alapismereteit, folyamatait járja körbe, és folyamatosan készülnek más témában is képzések. Ezekre regisztrációt követően jelentkezhetnek a múzeum szakemberei és a kurzust teljesen digitális formában végzik el. Emellett itt lesznek elérhetők bizonyos nyílt kurzusok is, melyek módszertani segítséget nyújthatnak a múzeumoknak. Az új portál tehát e-learning képzésekkel és digitális, vagy interaktív segédletekkel szolgálja a szakmabeliek egész életen át tartó tanulását, a kompetenciafejlesztést és új célok elérését.
