The work and life of Günter Grass forms the thematic core for an interactive tour and GPS-based hiking route along the Elbe-Lübeck Canal, presented in Augmented Reality. A virtual map conveys the multifaceted history of the Elbe-Lübeck Canal through the eyes, memories, and perspective of Günter Grass.
Günter Grass' view of the Elbe-Lübeck Canal is the central theme of the application. His thoughts on history, culture, and society form the framework of the app's content.
All the stories are part of a narrative stream that is entirely themed “In the footsteps of Günter Grass”.
Streets, buildings, and recommendations are displayed around your current location. By pointing, rotating or zooming with your smartphone, you can discover the surroundings.
With this initiative, the Grass House wants visitors to feel the same sense of peace and contentment that Günter Grass felt during his stays.
The selected tour and its points of interest, displayed as 3D hotspots, can be reached on foot or by bike.
The app marks regional recommendations with an icon. Thanks to GPS, the smartphone shows the exact location on the 3D map.
Users collect badges for completed points of interest, which can be collected and viewed in their profile. Badges can be used to unlock gifts, samples, and promotions from local merchants.
The interactive app displays lodging options, restaurants, deals, and tourism recommendations from local experts and businesses to match the user's stay.
