Multisensory Experience

An experience designed to engage multiple senses simultaneously, including touch, hearing, smell, taste, and proprioception, rather than relying primarily on vision. In accessibility contexts, multisensory design is essential for creating inclusive experiences that people with visual impairments can fully engage with. Science museums and cultural institutions increasingly use multisensory approaches — combining tactile models, spatial audio, haptic feedback, olfactory elements, and temperature changes — to make exhibitions accessible and engaging for all visitors.
