iPhone app Oppidum Závist

The application you currently hold in your hand visualise a sum of archaeological knowledge and

history of Doln Beany and the Zvist fortified settlement using new technologies of virtual and

augmented reality.

The application is divided into two main sections, each of which works and provides information in a

slightly different way.
The part of the application called the Guide follows the individual stops of the

tourist nature trail, which includes the circuit through the villages of Doln Beany and the path

along the Zvist fortified settlement.
By using virtual and augmented reality, it expands the content

of tourist information panels.
The visitor can see 3D computer visualisations of the reconstructions of

the site or the archaeological features that were found on the site on his/her phone display.
For

easier orientation, there is a map indicating all stops with information panels and your current

location.

By choosing the part of the application called the Game, you can enjoy a thrilling story based on time

travelling within the area of the fortified settlement at Zvist.
It starts from the Rozcest u Lhoty stop.

The game is designed primarily for children, but, of course, but even older age groups can try a

combination of virtual reality, geocaching and various mini-games.
Of course, the purpose of the

game is nothing less than saving the whole world; thus, we keep our fingers crossed for you and wish

you a successful passing the entire story!
