  • Publication number: 20190034968
    Abstract: The present invention provides an interactive advertisement method. At first, an interactive advertisement with an interactive game is formed in an advertisement platform according to an advertisement content. Next, the advertisement platform sends this interactive advertisement to a handheld device. The handheld device captures instant location information and instant image information at a specific position according to a task assignment of the interactive game. Then, based on the instant location information and the instant image information, the handheld device determines whether the task assignment is completed. When the task assignment has been completed, the handheld device transmits the instant location information and the instant image information to the advertisement platform for a secondary verification. Thereafter, the advertisement platform sends a verification code to the handheld device for exchanging a prize.
