Digital treasure hunting to sharpen the orientation sense
===============
According to the video A simple circle, average people lost awareness for locations, distances, directions, cardinal points and angles. They degenerated to right/left idiots - and sometimes confuse these directions
This gets worse: post administrations, ESRI/TheScienceOfWhere, Daimler, Sony
etc. are introducing location codes based on names (!?). This is not smart but
demonstrates the existence of a huge but ignored (you?) market gap:
- nonacademic location codes
for targets, crossings, stations, stop points, bridges, tunnels, buildings, rooms, emergency doors, houses, graves, trees etc.
I'm a German-Brazilian inventor and I've developed an orientation system based on imaginary clocks. Among 25 (!) benefits, this innovation answers the questions "where" and "whereto?" better than the alternatives. As the post codes got obsolete, a War of Standards arose. I've developed the only one German alternative and the only one which improves maps, signage and navigation.
Imaginary clocks start with a simple circle, help to avoid confusions, help those who (think they) can't read maps, allow to form imaginable location codes and allow a self-guiding called VolksNav.
The following treasure should be hunted:
- one of six persons sitting around a table within a beer tent within the Oktoberfest Theresienwiese in Munich
- monuments and sculptures within the Tiergarten in Berlin
The treasures can be hunted with 3 distinct navigation methods. For the
methods ZigZag and BeeLine, no tools are required. The only one reference is
this one:
- the Bavaria statue, the Quadriga at the Brandenburger Tor, the Sphinx and
the Christ statue in Rio look in direction m3 / sunrise ( = QuoVides(R) 3).
The 3th navigation method uses the VolksNav app. Comparing radius and time, the user will be able to decide:
- must I go inwards or outwards?
- must I go to later/clockwise or to earlier?
The hunting tasks will be released on www.volksnav.de/Wiesn
and www.volksnav.de/Tiergarten . No need of registrations.
