Enhance Experiments with Augmented Reality

Albert Teichrew, Aug 2, 2020

Using the GeoGebra 3D Calculator app on a smartphone or tablet, these models can be displayed on any surface seen through the camera and dynamically adapted to real structures such as inclined planes, simple circuits or plane mirrors. As a result, elements that are normally not observable are visualised and contribute to understanding the phenomenon. Based on these ideas, further so-called augmented reality experiments can be devised from these examples. Read more in this (open access) paper [url]https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6552/abb5b9[/url]
