This post is after I experienced Augmented Reality.
I had a great time learning about dinosaurs and the universe through Augmented Reality. A little “Character” of the creature or thing that was chosen, would pop up, and you could move around it, and see all of its different parts. We looked at dinosaurs first. We started off with the T- Rex. You could look at the end of its tail, all the way up to the tip of its mouth. The “Characters” look very real, so you get a very good experience.
The next dinosaur we “explored” was a velociraptor. It was very interesting learning about the actual size of the animal, because in the movies I’ve watched, they look much bigger then they actually are.
We saw some more dinosaurs, and then my classmates and I moved into space. We looked at the sun first. You could see the outside of the sun, and walk around it. When you moved the phone into the sun, you could see all the different inner layers of it. There was a chunk taken out of the sun, so you could see the inner layers from the outside more clearly.
We looked at the different dwarf planets and gas planets, It was very interesting seeing the different shapes and sizes of the planets.
I had a great time experiencing Augmented Reality. It was a very good learning experience. It was very very fun and interactive experience!!!
Hi Brandon, I liked the Velocirapter the most because it’s my favorite dinosaur, it’s a let down that there not as big in the movies though. I wish we could’ve used the headset’s instead of the selfie sticks to make it seem more real. I wonder when we will do or if we do more Virtual Reality?
Hi Brandon! I had a lot of fun doing Augmented Reality with you! If I had to choose between the dinosaurs and the planets, I would say that the planets were my favorite! Wouldn’t it be cool if they gave us headsets and the dinosaurs could move around? You did a great job on this post, so keep up the good work! Bye!
