About Greenfun Aplikacja mobilna

Greenfun to aplikacja mobilna zaprojektowana w celu wspierania pielęgnacji roślin i podnoszenia świadomości ekologicznej. Użytkownicy identyfikują rośliny w swoim otoczeniu za pomocą smartfona i przyjmują ich cyfrowe wersje do osobistego ogrodu. Rzeczywistość rozszerzona pokazuje, jak rośliny zmieniają się w ciągu czterech pór roku, a technologia lokalizacji pomaga znaleźć rośliny do adopcji w pobliżu. Można zapraszać znajomych do udziału w aktywnościach związanych z naturą, a także odwiedzać ogrody innych użytkowników w celu wymiany roślin. Punkty zdobyte za te działania dają zniżki na zakup prawdziwych roślin.
