The authors
The book draws on the authors’ extensive experience in research and teaching in this field. Nikolaos Avouris, Emeritus Professor at the University of Patras, and Christos Sintoris, teaching and research associate of the same university, have worked extensively on the design and evaluation of location-based mobile games for cultural heritage, city games, and related forms of situated interaction. Their combined expertise makes this book a valuable resource for students, researchers, designers, and practitioners interested in the future of mobile interactive experiences.
