Serious games on the Avoid, Reduce, Compensate (ERC) sequence

Avoid, Reduce and Compensate the impacts of offshore wind farms

This game puts you in the shoes of decision-makers tasked with developing marine renewable energy, following the ‘Avoid, Reduce, Compensate’ approach. Find the right balance between developing these technologies and addressing environmental and socio-economic challenges.

Catan

Inspiré du célèbre jeu « Les Colons de Catan », explorez avec Catan H2 le potentiel de l’hydrogène et les défis liés au dimensionnement d’un parc éolien en mer. Votre objectif ? Bâtir un parc éolien en mer capable de produire de l’hydrogène : positionnez les éoliennes, les unités de production et les infrastructures en tenant compte des contraintes techniques et des différentes possibilités de configurations. Un jeu stratégique pour comprendre le potentiel de l’hydrogène dans la transition énergétique.

Où est Fernande ?

Ce mini jeu sérieux vous plonge au cœur du suivi des oiseaux marins. À travers l’annotation de vidéos issues des instruments de mesure du mat de Fécamp, découvrez les enjeux et les défis liés au suivi scientifique des populations d’oiseaux en mer. Votre objectif ? Observer et identifier les oiseaux présents dans les vidéos, d’abord seul, puis avec l’appui de l’intelligence artificielle. Cette approche vous permettra de comprendre comment les outils numériques peuvent soutenir les chercheurs dans le traitement et l’analyse de données complexes.
