This work includes a notebook and an interactive implementation of augmented reality. Drawing upon the plot of the story, the App and notebook are used for the packaging, while the Taipei MRT serves as the main method of transportation. The App provides people with information about the MRT and how to get to these attractions. In this way, the level of curiosity amongst users regarding the MRT and attractions along the way is raised. With this increased interest, users can then visit official websites to learn more, which in turn adds to the motivation for traveling.
