EcoQuest
Save the planet, beat your friends: photograph a real-world eco action and watch an on-device detector verify it.
What it is
A social game built around real environmental action. Take on a Quest, photograph what you did, see the detector verify it, earn XP and EcoPoints, climb the leaderboard. It isn't a recycling tracker and it doesn't run on guilt.
Design decisions
- Verification you can see: the detector draws boxes and names classes instead of returning a black-box yes.
- Detection runs on the phone, so the reward lands before the network catches up.
- Offline by design: writes queue locally and reconcile later.
- Claims with a basis: CO₂ estimates show their methodology, sponsored Quests stay visibly sponsored.
