GreenEase NFC began as a bold idea in The 2nd City I&T Grand Challenge, where we explored how NFC could bridge nature and digital convenience. The challenge helped refine the team’s vision, with feedback on user interaction, content delivery, and sustainability, transforming the idea into a practical solution.
The site visit and collaboration with the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department helped the team understand the real-world needs of country parks. The team gained valuable insights through expert feedback on sustainability, environmental impact, and user practicality, refining GreenEase NFC to better serve park visitors and management.
