GPS technology is changing the way we live. It can be found
in surprising places from automobiles to cell phones and
is the backbone of the global treasure hunting game called
Geocaching. Geo-what-ing? Geo-caching. Through Geocaching,
more than three million people have found the treasure of
reconnecting with family, community and nature in a meaningful
way.
GPS Adventures is a life-sized maze exhibition introducing
visitors to cutting-edge Global Positioning Systems (GPS)
through Geocaching – a family friendly treasure hunting
game. More than three million people around the world are
on the hunt for nearly a half million hidden treasures. In
addition to hidden booty, these geocachers are finding the
real treasure: reconnecting with family, community and nature
in a meaningful way.
Created by Groundspeak, the founders of geocaching.com,
and Minotaur Mazes, GPS Adventures takes visitors on a mind-bending
journey in search of their secret treasure city. Navigating
around obstacles and deciphering mysterious codes are all
part of the adventure ultimately inspiring visitors to get
up off the couch and into the great outdoors in new and exciting
ways.
