Are you a fan of 3D computer graphics and augmented reality? Then let yourself be enchanted by this metaball simulation. With [AR] Blob you get a high-quality AR app with which you can play in all facets with Metaballs. Use the settings menu. Here you will find many configuration options that influence the simulation. Choose from a variety of texture types that you like best. Change parameters to see how the simulation adapts and changes. Experiment with refraction. Consider the simulation in the virtual environment of a canyon, in the green nature, in a burned-down observatory, between heaven and earth and numerous other motifs. [AR] Blob uses the Marching Cubes algorithm, which was developed in 1987 by scientists William Lorenson and Harvey Cline as part of a research project. Virtual ISO surfaces can be found, calculated and displayed in three-dimensional space. (e.g. 3D ultrasound technology) As always, this app has no in-app purchases or annoying ads so you get a nice product. We hope you enjoy this AR title.

Imagine a giant digital canvas where every person on the internet can paint, but there’s a catch: each person can only add one pixel of color at a time, and also the pixels are hexagons. Now, multiply that by hundreds of thousands of people. all trying to contribute to this same canvas, made of millions of hexagonal pixels, some working together, others competing to get their designs up. That’s Hex Place! Contribute on this massive, living piece of digital art, created and erased in real-time by whoever wants to. A place made of hexagons that over time becomes a chaotic yet fascinating representation of internet culture and creativity. The result is a constantly evolving mosaic that’s equal parts collaboration and conflict, where you see everything from stunning artwork to hilarious, pixelated chaos. It’s both a game and a window into the power of collective action on the internet.
