ABSTRACT

The latest achievements in the field of mobile networks and ubiquitous computing enable the integration and combination of technologies like Internet, Java, and multimedia in a new kind of application that employs distribution, wireless networking, localisation, and movement---mobile location-aware multimedia games. The approach presented is an innovative re-invention of a paper chase/scavenger hunt as a mobile location-aware game. The video demonstration illustrates the technical foundation and the system design of the mobile game. We also show the fun and the action of the game following some students when they play the game on our university campus.
