Whereas the use of specific smart technologies in various sectors of the tourism industry has been under greater scrutiny in recent years, research that investigates tourists’ acceptance of smart technologies applied as a whole to hotels is largely underexplored. To address this shortfall, a study with a focus on tourists’ acceptance of experience-enhancement smart technologies has been conducted. A technology acceptance model based conceptual framework was developed, followed by a series of interviews with the managerial staff of ten hotels in Hong Kong that adopt experience-enhancement smart technologies. Based on the interview findings, a questionnaire was designed for use in a survey in which data were collected face-to-face from 312 tourists. Structural equation modelling was utilised to reveal the interrelationships between nine technology acceptance parameters. This study contributes knowledge to both real-world practice and research in tourism management.

“…Hitherto, the concept of smart technology itself has however been scarcely defined and conceptualized beyond technological fields and perspectives (Lee, 2012a). Smart technology, implying the words intelligent and smart, is commonly used to describe a new product while referring to the environment, condition or motion of the technology that adapts certain functions or is tailored to specific circumstances (Worden, Bullough & Haywood, 2003).…”

Smart technologies in tourism for personalized experiencesKey Words (for indexing and abstract services -up to 6 words):Personalization; experience; smart technology; best practice; case study; JEL classification L83 Word Count 8411Word Processing Program Name and Version Number:EndNote X5 AbstractThe advances in technology have led to the emergence of innovative technological smart solutions providing unprecedented opportunities for the tourism industry. With intensified competition in the tourism market place, it has become paramount for businesses to explore the potential of technologies not only to optimise existing processes but strategically use technology in the delivery of more meaningful and personalized experiences.Despite its importance, knowledge about the role of smart technology for personalized experiences is still limited in both tourism theory and practice. This study therefore aims to explore how tourism businesses can strategically implement smart technologies to facilitate the personalization of customer experiences. In employing a qualitative case study approach, this study makes a two-fold contribution by a) identifying requirements of smart technologies for experience creation, including information aggregation, ubiquitous mobile connectedness and real time synchronization and b) highlighting how smart technology leads to two levels of personalized tourism experiences.

“…The Eqs. (8) and (9) are generic forms of the wellknown Bernoulli's law [31] for the case of the real flow cross-sections (which are proportional to the distance h between a valve and a valve seat) are being changed through time. The right part of the Eq.…”
