The objective
Elder Museum needed a climate exhibition that supported group participation while restrictions prevented visitors from using shared touch surfaces.
The experience
Visitors scan a QR code and connect their phones to a shared screen for cooperative challenges.
In Forest Keepers, teams arrange color-matched plants, collect water, and respond to fires while moving with the music.
In Ocean Keepers, each phone controls a submarine that removes floating waste while protecting fish.
The results
Both experiences ran in a temporary climate exhibition at Elder Museum, a science museum in the Canary Islands.
Personal phone controls allowed groups to participate together during periods when shared surfaces were off limits.
