Temple University is launching a study that will analyze the potential for mobile devices to enhance the experience of tourists in Philadelphia, and are currently seeking 20 to 35 year old tourists who are planning to visit Philly this month to partake in the study.
The experiment is going to study how tourists gain valuable experiences as they are traveling while analyzing the potential for mobile applications. Using mobile technology, specifically the cell phone and the various features therein, like sharing pictures, GPS mapping, and text messaging, the study will look at how these functions support the tourist experience.
All participants will be given Amazon.com gift card worth $200 which can be used virtually anywhere.
