Are you attending Kscope16? If so, you are in luck, @theappslab team will be back this year (by popular demand) to do a Scavenger Hunt. This year there are even more chances to win, plus check out these prizes:
- First place: DJI Phantom Drone
- Second place: Amazon Echo
- Third place: Raspberry Pi
Our first scavenger hunt took place last year at Kscope15. Here’s a quick video detailing the whats, whys and wherefores of the game from our fearless leader and Group Vice President, Jeremy Ashley (@jrwashley) and me.
After that, we replicated the experience for an OTN Community Quest at OpenWorld and JavaOne 2015 and then for the UKOUG App15 and Tech15 Conference Explorer. We have had great fun seeing participants engaged. We are very proud of the game engine we built for the scavenger hunt, bringing together software and IoT. If you are interested to see how it all works check out our post “Game Mechanics of a Scavenger Hunt“.
Check the Kscope16 Scavenger Hunt site for more information on how to join and play during the annual ODTUG user group shindig. You can even signup to play during your registration process.
We have some interesting twists in store this year, and we’re hoping for an even larger group of engaged players this year.
See you there!
