How do we make history feel alive?
In partnership with Google, Thoughtworks helped the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum create Lincoln Unlocked — an augmented reality (AR) experience that brings Lincoln’s story into the present.
Through immersive storytelling and inclusive design, visitors can explore 1860s America, interact with virtual artifacts, and connect with the human stories behind one of the most transformative periods in U.S. history.
This is innovation with purpose, using technology to deepen learning, broaden access, and inspire curiosity across generations.
Watch to see how AR in museums and exhibitions is transforming historical storytelling, accessibility, and visitor engagement to create immersive, educational experiences for all.
