Everything we do is founded on our belief that innovators are created when curious children are given the opportunity to explore and Augmented Reality (AR) enables them to achieve that. That's why we designed ARious (AR for Curious) to be interesting, immersive and interactive for the learners. The main purpose is to provide a platform to those who aspire to deeply understand the fascinating world around us, and to empower teachers with an elegant tool to make it happen. In ARious you can relive 3D Experiments that were performed by legendary Scientists, for discovering the Laws of Chemical Combination, which laid the foundation for the concepts of Atoms, and later in Physics, experience the discoveries of electrons and the atomic nucleus, leading to the atomic model. You will also get to do 3D interactions with Plant and Animal Cells, and have an intimate experience of the Germination of a Seed. Experience the Pragyan rover coming out of the Vikram Lander of Chandrayaan 2. Interact and understand how our Heart works. Explore how Wind Energy can be converted in to Kinetic Energy. ARious is still under active development. We appreciate any feedback. You could reach us at arious@edu360.co. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Do you want to learn Physics in your own device? Well, now you can, with ARPhymedes Plus! You can have your own experiment station and start learning about various Physics' principles: - Scan the ARPhymedes Plus handbook and watch the experiments. - Learn new things about Physics from various chapters. - Most importantly have fun! ARphymedes Plus project aims to make available the full potential of the ARphymedes project's intellectual results to Special Educational Needs students and thus make education a more inclusive space. The ARphymedes Plus project will integrate new technologies such as AR, text to speech, user environment adjustment and others, to the toolkits of the education of Physics towards SEN students at secondary school. The ARphymedes Plus project is not only about the application of ICTs, but also on the attractiveness of the content. It is expressed on a multimodal approach in education using Science, Technology and History as access points for guiding student inquiry, dialogue, and critical thinking, all applied in the ARphymedes Plus project. It incorporates technology and cross-sectional knowledge to foster the creativity, imagination and interest in Physics and STEM, by removing environmental and individual barriers leading to social exclusion. The ARphymedes Plus consortium is comprised of 6 partners from 4 European countries, forming an international partnership with a strong geographic representation of the Erasmus+ area. A short description of each, their expertise and role within ARphymedes Plus is presented in https://arphymedes-plus.eu/about-us/. Cofunded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union.
