Using advanced photo technology, GigaPan, zoom in on surveillance photos taken across the globe to locate him, and other influential items from the game. Participants begin by receiving a list of items to search for within a massive location. Once the items are uncovered, players must tag the item to check it off their list. A new location and list of items to locate will be unveiled each week.
The GigaPan Imager shares the same technology as the Mars Exploration Rovers, Spirit and Opportunity, which are used to collect dynamic panoramic images of Mars. This innovation captures large (gigapixel) composite photos that can be zoomed in on and still maintain the highest resolution data for the image.
