Interactive QR Geocaching & Adventure Systems
A puzzle piece that moves.
Make the physical world interactive—geocaches, treasure hunts, AR portals, and time capsules that evolve without reprinting or re-placing clues.
Why stickers fail here
- →Exposure to sun/rain/handling peels and fades labels; adhesive bond strength drops under UV and humidity.
- →Stickers are obvious; vandal-prone and easy to remove.
How Hidden Hinge wins
- ✓Discreet, durable marks (painted/stenciled or small plate) that blend into the environment.
- ✓Dynamic reveals: time-based unlocks, geofenced content, or role-specific hints.
- ✓Link-rot guard: if a destination dies, the scan auto-routes to your fallback page.
