Birmingham trip

Recently, I have a trip to go to Birmingham. I have visited Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery, there is a great place. In museum, I found some interested things, this equipment in below is introducing workmans how to create stuff. each box has equipped the button, when visitor pushes the black button, the light in box will be turn on, and the people will move, it like to tell people a short story. then when people leave, all the things in box will be stop.
I think this interactive device can use in my project, to give passer-by fun when they see store's window.
