Concept work

The redesign of the existing history scanner concept in general had one goal - the maximization of interaction.

A series of quest were designed by me. I used Adventure movies, eg. »Indiana Jones« and »Da Vinci Code« de«, as a model. Thus a high degree of interactivity in both the virtual and the real world was created. While real features were integrated locally in the solution process to create an authentic atmosphere.

Test scenario

The entire game is currently up to 7 stations. For test purposes, the first 2 stations, the Red Gate and Church of St. Ulrich and Afra, are fully implemented. Subsequently, the necessary RFID chips were positioned and a test scenario was made.
The goal of the test scenario was to test the applicability of the application in the field. Furthermore, the suitability of RFID chips and severity of the different puzzles were evaluated.
