European Space Agency funding for Augmented Reality Hiking Trails!

European Space Agency funding for Augmented Reality Hiking Trails Project Manager!

Deadline of the up to 60k funding is on February 25th.

Keen on Nature and AR? A great opportunity just popped up to start a project using AR mobile technology and satellite navigation to develop an innovative tourism product. The first prototype is supposed to be developed in the frame of the Smart Village project on the International Art-trail which crosses the property of Coconat in Brandenburg/Germany. There are great potential partners (in particular the Naturparkverein Fläming, Coconat, the network Virtual Reality Berlin Brandenburg, and ikusei) and a potential funding from the business development office and a super-cool grant from the European Space Agency!

The project doesn’t have funding yet and needs an enthusiastic person like you to write up the application.

So if you are interested jumping on this horse we are happy to support you with the necessary information and for sure you should play a central role in the upcoming project. If this makes your heart beat faster please give a call to Janosch +491784456882 or send an e-mail to janosch@coconat-space.com
