Alantu

A mobile game approach to motivate volunteer computing towards enabling large complex data projects in their processing needs.

Alantu is a crowd-processing mobile solution that is powered by a gamified community. It allows its users to collaborate in multiple research and development projects such as astronomy, climate, physics, and medicine by contributing non usage processing power. Alantu enables its users to include their Android device as part of a distributed computing system when it is not in use. Individuals can download the app through Google Play Store and they can choose their first mission to start contributing processing capacity and make progress on the game. Alantu was founded in 2014 by Carlos De Venezia, Ignacio Olaciregui, Victor Calvello, and Matias Mediña Andregnette.
