ISS ExplorAR vs WeatherSats AR

Explore the exterior and interior of the International Space Station in detail with Augmented Reality technology. Walkable AR Exploration Using Simultaneous Localization & Mapping (SLAM) augmented reality technology, the user will be able to place a realistic 3D model of the International Space Station on any nearby surface in their reality. By moving the device around in the AR Mode, the user can observe the exterior of the ISS in detail, including the information about each module. Go inside the 3D interior to experience the point of view of the astronauts themselves. Approach each apparatus inside the station to watch helpful videos and know more about it. Via the mini map available, the user will also able to jump to different modules. Thumb-Friendly Navigation in Non-AR 3D Mode For users who prefer non-AR mode, the ISS ExplorAR provides the 3D Mode in which the ISS interior is possible to explore by using a two-thumb friendly navigation system on screen. The user’s left thumb will control the directional button, whilst the right button will control the camera movement for an immersive experience. Cupola in VR & the Spacewalk Experience In the 3D non-AR mode, the user can find 2 ‘hidden features’ by visiting the right module. Approach the hidden icons for a spacewalk experience and enjoy the beautiful view of our planet in virtual reality in the Cupola.

Learn about the satellites that monitor extreme weather and climate change in this immersive AR app. We'll challenge you to complete a series of missions, which will start with an interactive journey into space where you’ll see the satellites orbiting Earth and view all of their instruments up close. You’ll learn how the satellite instruments work, how they transmit data from space to a system of ground stations on Earth and end up in your weather forecast. You’ll learn about the electromagnetic spectrum and how the satellites see. And you’ll explore the powerful weather events and dazzling weather phenomena that they observe across our planet.
