CellulAR es una aplicación educativa en donde podrás ver en tres dimensiones los diferentes orgánulos de una célula eucariota y procariota, mediante Realidad Aumentada. La aplicación se distribuye con dos trackers, cada uno de ellos correspondiente a la célula eucariota y procariota, respectivamente. Apuntando con el dispositivo a cada uno de los trackers se proyecta la imagen tridimensional de un corte celular en donde se distinguen los orgánulos más significativos de la misma. Al hacer click en cada uno de los orgánulos se muestra información útil sobre los mismos.
