Augmented Reality in Real Life
On view Friday, May 1, 2015 to Sunday, May 10, 2015
About This Exhibit
The Microsoft HoloLens and Google Glass projects have recently raised the profile of augmented reality (AR), an emerging technology that blends the boundaries between the physical and virtual by augmenting a view of the world with other real-time sensory data. The designs from this studio illustrate the full potential of this technology by showing us how augmented reality could become a part of our everyday lives in the very near future.
During the semester, the students' activities focused on the process of analyzing, synthesizing, evaluating, and explaining the context of their design investigations. The goal of this project was to understand and practice the relationship between form, information, interface, and physical space.
This multimodal exhibit is deployed in two spaces at the Hunt Library. Visit the iPearl Immersion Theater for a glimpse into your augmented future through seven different AR scenarios. Then head to the adjacent Tech Showcase to get hands-on experience with the technology through a live demonstration of a student-made AR application.
