I. Groundspeak's Wherigo(tm) Platform Released on New Garmin Colorado(tm) GPS

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Groundspeak's Wherigo, a platform for creating and playing location-based multimedia experiences in the real world, is now available on Garmin's newest generation of handheld GPS devices.

 

Using the Wherigo platform, Wherigo authors can build engaging adventure games, historical tours and other innovative activities for Wherigo players to enjoy outdoors. The Wherigo experience combines physical and virtual elements, overlaying engaging story lines and useful information onto a real-world background. Using a Wherigo enabled GPS device, participants can visit physical locations, take and use virtual items, interact with virtual characters and solve real-world puzzles. Learn more about Wherigo at http://www.wherigo.com.
