Environmental Awareness


Come build a pervasive game in situ in Vienna!



We will work with training the map, finding good clues by looking at what is in the environment, and building a kit for our players. These images are of players in our Environmental Awareness Game in Helsinki. In Vienna, we will look to build a game that makes players takes note of their environment, the green areas, the beauty to be found there, as well as adding some knowledge of environmental issues.



We use a newly developed robust tracking for phones "Studierstube Tracker NFT 2" and work with the city, your knowledges, and our knowledge to build something really good.
