Last year Culver City did a downtown cultural walking tour mobile app, and after getting various bids - as there are a number of companies that do this, many international - we settled on Otocast:
Eric.feinstein@otocast.com
You can download the Otocast app for free and check out our tour amongst many others. Also, they were very affordable and can do updates easily. Not sure about barcode capability, but we have used QR codes on our artwork to take people directly to our website which has more information, more images, etc. QR codes are free too.

Subject: Need Info on Tools to Showcase Public Art Collections
Greetings. The City of Sarasota has a nice Public Art Collection and is looking for a platform we can use to create a digital history and a way for people to tour the art. I bet there are good tools available that we can build this on rather than building one ourselves.
Some of the features we’d like to have: mobile phone app, website, handles images and video, possibly barcode capable, flexible editing, reliable technology, from a company that has good standing, affordable.
I’d appreciate hearing from anyone who has experience with tools like this. Which cities are already using this sort of technology? Which features am I forgetting?
Thanks,
Leslie Butterfield
