TEECOM’s Contribution
TEECOM provided telecommunication and wireless design systems for the SFMOMA expansion. TEECOM performed predictive wireless surveys to design coverage of Wi-Fi services throughout the expansion building, and worked with the architect to integrate access points into interior finishes.

Behind the Walls
The technology vision for the user experience was to fully enable the socialbuilding®, where a user is greeted upon or prior to entry, and actively engages with the space. Customized information serves to the user’s personal computing device, from the guided tour, to wayfinding, ultimately personalizing the experience of each user based upon preferences and historical data.
