WHAT: Locatify Ltd. is a service provider for technology and platforms, allowing our partners in the field of tourism, education, and entertainment to publish their location-aware content on Smart Devices. Locatify has already released its SmartGuide technology, using GPS location data and augmented reality to offer guided audio tours with pictures and maps. Locatify is now extending thisplatform to create a treasure hunt game.

The platform makes it possible to design and publish guides and treasure hunt games to be enjoyed on location, via Smartphones. The games, which use GPS, 3G, and maps, are designed as real-time, competitive treasure hunts to be played by teams. They involve problem solving and exploration activities, finding treasures, and playing mini-games; with the game mechanics also including virtual game items. The system’s design tools are suitable for amateur and professional designers alike. They can create and publish their material on Smartphones and pads. The system will be available to all game and tour designers, wherever they want to create, edit, and publish guided tours and treasure hunt games.

Wed, 26 Oct 2011 04:49:00 -0700 "Click.to" makes sharing and copy&paste on and offline a breeze (@clicktoapp) http://startuppitches.posterous.com/clickto-makes-sharing-and-copypaste-on-and-of http://startuppitches.posterous.com/clickto-makes-sharing-and-copypaste-on-and-of

Clickto_google_en_ex
WHAT: You press CTRL + C hundreds of times a day, but between copy and paste are far too many clicks? Now you can’t find the correct target program, for better or worse? And all the while, your colleague has been complaining that you have already sent e-mails without attachments?
These are all detours that cost; time, money, patience and energy. Click.to is the true copy and paste. It brings a Smartphone feeling to the computer, desktop applications and web pages are turned into intelligent network components, all working together. Click.to furthers the Copy & Paste principle idea: With one click, you can find an unknown word with click.to Wikipedia or a technical article with click.to Google. Click.to can also quickly send screenshots to co-workers via email, or find an address in no time with Google Maps. Click.to programs on your computer work together, making boundaries and barriers smaller. This will save you precious time and money. If you have tried click.to once, you’ll never want to take the long route to your programs again.

WHO: Martin Welker (CEO) and Peter Oehler (COO).

WHERE: The company Axonic Informationssysteme GmbH is located in Karlsruhe, Germany.
