# Ida Interactive Destination Assistant | ||
**NOI Hackathon Summer Edition Project** | ||
|
||
## What is Ida? | ||
Ida has two meanings. The first is literal, it stands for: **Interactive Destination Assistant** the other one is more fun: its a South Tyrolean (German) name 💁♂️ and that helps to give personality to the assistant. | ||
|
||
Ida is an assistant that helps tourists to plan excursions in [South Tyrol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Tyrol). | ||
|
||
## How does Ida assist tourists? | ||
First things first: | ||
|
||
Ida is composed of more than one part. The first one being: Ida runs on a [Kiosk](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interactive_kiosk). The second one: Ida also runs on a mobile device📱. | ||
|
||
### Ida's Workflow | ||
* The tourist stands in front of the Kiosk and selects his language🌐. | ||
* The tourist can take a picture📸 using the Kiosk. A [cognitive service](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_computing)💻 recognizes age, sex, number of persons and the group type such as single👨, couple💑, family👨👩👧 or friends👋. (this step can be skipped, and information can be corrected/inserted manually.) | ||
* Ida will start to ask some questions to the tourist. Examples: | ||
|
||
What do you prefer? | ||
|
||
* **Historical cities** | ||
* **Famed Landmarks** | ||
* **Local Eats** | ||
|
||
* **Beautiful landscapes** | ||
* **Supreme relaxation** | ||
* **A hike in the mountains** | ||
|
||
..... | ||
|
||
* According to the obtained Information Ida will generate a couple of **unique experiences** in South Tyrol. | ||
* The tourist selects the experience and enjoys the day👌. | ||
* Optionally the tourist can download the app📱 that adds more information to the experience and provides weather related☁️ updates... The user can also print his selected unique experience. | ||
|
||
## Where will Ida be placed? | ||
Good question🤔 | ||
|
||
💡 Ida can be placed in Hotels. Moreover, Hotels can offer their own experiences on Ida, next to the public ones everyone can create, of course. | ||
|
||
💡 Technically at any other place of interest. | ||
|
||
## Who will provide unique experiences for Ida? | ||
* The hotels | ||
* The community | ||
* Travel guides: this group of people can offer **paid excursions**. | ||
* Example: [Mountain Guides](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_guide)⛰️ can offer a tour on the glacier. | ||
