imaginAR

"The imagination shows what is invisible to the eye"

ImaginAR is an app designed for the creation and use of virtual exhibitions, which allows you to see digital artistic itineraries in augmented reality. The exhibits created are site-specific and will lead you into a fascinating and surprising experience. To be able to view the digital works, simply activate the GPS position so that the app recognizes the position and signals the works in the vicinity, to guide you to the location indicated on the map. Once on site, it will be sufficient to frame with the app camera and you will see animated and multimedia digital works in 3D appearing, interacting with the surrounding environment. An immersive experience with a strong impact, which involves visual and auditory perception.

Application developed and designed by Stefania Solari and Bepart.
