AUGMENTED REALITY FOR TOURISM INDUSTRY - PANKAJ MANCHANDA FOUNDER-CEO: AUGTRAVELER

#augmentedreality #augtraveler #travel #artourism

Pankaj Manchanda is the Founder-Ceo of Augtraveler that is working on redefining the travel industry by Promoting the Culture and Heritage of a region through an Experiential Travel platform using Augmented Reality, Geo-Location and Analytics. His love for Edutech, Culture & history is reflected in his work. The platform builds on self-guided AR and Geo location-based heritage trails, which connects the travelers directly with the 'localhost communities' in the vicinity of the heritage sites thereby promoting the intangible cultural heritage of a region, whilst facilitating in the evolution of a Sustainable Livelihood Model for the 'host communities'.  The project also has a school outreach program wherein the Multidisciplinary activity books have been designed for school children in alignment with the experiential learning pedagogy. The mandate of this module is to highlight and utilize the visits to the World Heritage Sites as Knowledge Dissemination Zones, rather than being picnic spots. The project vision is aligned with UN Sustainable Development Goals of 12b, 11, 8 and 4.
