BioChemAR vs ChemARise

Use BiochemAR to explore the 3-dimensional structures of biological molecules in the real world! All you need to do is point your camera at the QR codes associated with the BiochemAR. In order to use the module: 1) Download and install BiochemAR onto either your mobile or tablet device. 2) Download and print the QR code and instructions. (https://apps.carleton.edu/people/rsung/assets/BiochemAR_KscA_channel_QR_code_instructions.pdf) If you would like to customize the size of the QR code, here is the QR code image file (PNG).

ChemARise contains a library of chemical structures that can be visualized in 3D and interacted with to apply rotation, translation and scaling. The app also proposes an augmented reality mode (AR) to detect some chemical structures from university courses or scientific publications via the camera and display them in 3D. This app is designed to help students and researchers visualize the spatial arrangement of atoms in molecules to better understand concepts such as chirality, steric hindrance, or symmetry.
