□What is the FLOAT app?
Due to the impact of COVID-19, a different approach from group on-site activities is necessary. The app "FLOAT" created this time aims to raise awareness of the term "River Litter" among as many people as possible. The current version models four major rivers worldwide, starting with the Arakawa River. Inside the app, a large amount of river litter accumulated on the riverbed and floating artificial debris continuously flow by. Efficiently collecting these will reveal fish species unique to each river. Additionally, funding for activities is generated through users watching video ads and in-app purchases, enabling actual litter collection from rivers (initially focusing on the Arakawa River) and visualizing the results. The outcomes will be reported on a dedicated website.
□Venue
AO-AKA PARK (Ajipanda Square)
□Implementation Time
11:00 until kickoff
