Células Virtuais AR

Study of cells with augmented reality.

The "AR Virtual Cells" App uses augmented reality to create an interactive and educational experience in the study of eukaryotic (animal and plant) and prokaryotic cells, promoting learning in an engaging and stimulating way.

The main objective of the project is to allow users, through their mobile devices, to view and interact with a three-dimensional representation of cells, together with their respective components, through the combination of the cell phone's camera and a specially prepared table that contains a two-dimensional version of the cell in question.

To use it, the user must point the cell phone camera at the cell image and thus see the cell in 3D format, being able to rotate it by touching the device screen.

The project is an initiative developed by the EIC (Iterative Science Space) organization of the University of São Paulo (USP) and the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar).
