This paper proposes an innovative methodology for enhancing museum accessibility and inclusivity for visitors with specific learning disorders (SLDs) using audio-visual interfaces based on patented technology. The approach involves analyzing user preferences and dyslexic students’ self-assessments through two questionnaires. This study gathered 126 responses from both SLD-certified individuals and those without intellectual disabilities for the first questionnaire and over 1300 responses exclusively from SLD-certified individuals for the second. Results suggest practical solutions such as new visual effects, gamification methods, and user-friendly informational materials linked to an AI system. These findings serve as guidelines for developing technology to improve museum accessibility, particularly for individuals with SLDs.
