Easy Escape is an innovative IoT-based interactive system designed to revolutionize the customer experience and operational efficiency in the escape room industry. Our solution is a multi-platform system that blends seamlessly with existing escape room infrastructures, offering both software and hardware components for scalability and reliability. The system utilizes RFID technology to enhance gameplay and streamline room resetting. Players can use RFID readers to get clues for puzzles, while operators can use the same technology for quick and efficient prop restoration.

 

The entrepreneur project won the First Prize in China National iCAN Innovation Contest 2020. Leading a team of five, I conducted comprehensive user research and market analysis to identify both customer and operator pain points. The project demonstrated not just technical prowess, but also strong team collaboration, strategic milestone-setting, and effective stakeholder communication.

​

Note: The Easy Escape project was initiated in November 2019, prior to the release of similar products like Apple's AirTag (Apr 30, 2021). While there are similarities in the use of RFID technology, our system was independently conceived and designed with a specific focus on revolutionizing the escape room industry.
