App “Autostadt – Mobile Experience”: digitally conquering the Autostadt in Wolfsburg

The smartphone app “Autostadt – Mobile Experience” is now also a topic at “Motormobiles”. The online car magazine provides insights into how one can navigate in the Autostadt in Wolfsburg with this application. The app, available as a free download in the Google Play Store since August, combines analog and digital experiences thanks to dialogue and real-time information. On the site, which is as large as almost 40 football fields with 28 hectares, there are a multitude of stations. Based on the position data and using a combined indoor and outdoor navigation, visitors receive push notifications for orientation and information about stations – such as background knowledge, nearby attractions, restaurants, daily offers, prices and opening hours. A virtual tour guide invites you to explore a sustainability path specially developed for the “Autostadt – Mobile Experience” app.

Private University of Göttingen and locandis GmbH provide the know-how

“Autostadt – Mobile Experience” was created through a cooperation between Autostadt and the PFH Private University of Göttingen. The research project titled “DeepNav” has been carried out since June 2020 under the direction of Prof. Dr. Hans-Christian Riekhof with funding from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) for AR- and AI-based indoor navigation together with locandis GmbH at the PFH Private University of Göttingen. The Hamburg-based company locandis GmbH offers comprehensive solutions for real-time location systems, so-called Real-Time Locating Systems (RTLS), and specializes in location-based marketing and the implementation of digital customer card solutions as an app.
