Honestly I think a lot of us that are fans of your museum’s work would be interested in what curators do day-to-day. I’m sure Jonathan Ferguson and his colleagues don’t spend all day taking apart Star Wars blasters or test-firing prototype weapons. But I think you’d be happily surprised about our curiosity on what goes behind the scenes, even if it’s a bit mundane!
@@RoyalArmouriesMuseum or you know, a human being... Even if they don't speak English and are repeating it phonetically(this isn't a joke, it would actually be very amusing) But Mr Ferguson would be brilliant Since he's kinda you're biggest "Museum" ambassador wether he knows it or not Also can you get him diplomatic immunity? That last one is a joke
@@jessepatch9076 the White Tower at H M Tower of London and Fort Nelson in Portsmouth. You can take a look here and see what's on: royalarmouries.org/ hope to see you at the museum soon.
I wonder if this specific AI voice was chosen for maximum intelligibility, or some other accessibility concern I am oblivious to, because there are more natural sounding ones available these days. Regardless, it's good to see museums making content available to those who would normally be excluded.

Amazingly interesting, thanks for posting. I learnt a lot. The only armament museum that I have ever visited was the Rotunda - the Royal Artillery museum in Woolwich - hopefully still there. Back in the late 1960's it was absolutely RAMMED with exhibits and it boggled the mind of me at the time. I shall always remember the sections through various artillery shells and the like, and some of the amazing weapons from the times of conquest and Empire-building. I detest violence and the like, but the technology and design are endlessly fascinating.

The first link in the description doesn't work. I searched your website to find the 3D tour myself. Then I noticed it matches the "full 3D virtual tour" link further down in the description ;)
I was led to believe the pronunciation of "Mughal" was somewhat more like "Mooghal" rather than "Muggle", which is something from the Harry Potter series ! A pity someone with a better presentation manner couldn't have been used for the voiceover ! At times he sounded like he didn't know what he was talking about ! Where's Jonathan Ferguson when you need him?
Here's a strategy that might be cheaper for you and more popular with the public? 1) Stop trying to make your museum into a website. 2) Stop trying to make your website into a museum.
Thanks for your comment, you are not alone in not knowing the museum exists, which is a shame. For the full virtual experience visit royalarmouries.org/visit-us/royal-armouries-museum/3d-virtual-tour-of-the-royal-armouries-museum

@@Safetytrousers Then there are many other voices that hopefully also does the job, because that's a rather low bar. For me it was not listenable, even if I understood the words.
Sorry, but the "You can always turn the volume off" suggestion, which has been repeated several times, is a weak and weasly cop-out. The voiceover is dire and a massive mistake. Admit it and move on.
The voiceover is well recorded and very clear. There is no such suggestion normally appearing. There is something wrong with your system if you are experiencing these things.
@@narabdela The comment says the feedback will be borne in mind, and also links to a very good resource if you want a tour of the museum. What more do you want?
That voice synthesis sounds awful. There are some really grating audio artifacts, it sounds like a recording that went through a very lossy compression.
i have never heard a more unnatural, disjointed, and stilted piece of narration describing the contents of a museum before, never mind the strange repetitive echoes of something barking in the background as well as the sound of children playing was a complete annoying distraction from museums exhibits. Royal Armouries you couldn't have got it more wrong.
Sorry to hear you don't like it, we will bear your comments in mind for the future. You can always turn the volume off, or for the full experience visit royalarmouries.org/visit-us/royal-armouries-museum/3d-virtual-tour-of-the-royal-armouries-museum.
