An immersive experience between the physical reality of painting and the non-physical universe of Augmented Reality. This work is made up of 12 paintings from which an augmented reality story unfolds inspired by the granite rocks of Hyderabad on the Deccan plateau in India. This series tells the story of a woman who encounters 12 entities, spaces and energies (the rock, the Buddha, the dragonfly, dance, rest, etc.), in a sort of initiatory journey. It's about how a woman meets a rock and how he teaches her, through different entities, the way of life”. “One day, I was stretched out on a granite rock, the external universe faded like an illusion, and I began plunging into an internal reality. There, connections were made in the interstices of images and sounds, from one era to another, from one age to another, from one space to the next…” ________ To enter the AR universe of this book, scan each painting with the in.space application. For a better experience, please use headphones/earphones. Install the in.space application on your mobile device through Apple App Store Creative team Author - painter - voice off : Béatrice de Fays / B2Fays Composer : Mathieu Constans AR developer : Guillaume Evrard.

Having AR Drawing App is like always having a sheet of tracing paper with you! Choose any image you'd like to draw, take a photo, or choose from hundreds of images supplied in the app; then look at your screen while you trace the image on paper! an you can draw it! The app typically includes a variety of features such as the ability to adjust line thickness, change the color of the trace, and add text or other graphical elements to the drawing. Some trace drawing apps also offer the option to import and trace images from the user's device or from the internet. These apps can be useful for artists and designers looking to create quick sketches or concept art, or for students learning to draw by copying the work of others. So how does it works? - Select an image from the Photos app or capture an image with a camera then just apply the filter. After that, you will see that image on the camera screen with transparency & you have to put drawing paper or book anything on which you want to trace and draw. Your image will not appear on paper but a transparent image with camera so that you can trace it on paper. - Draw on paper by looking at the phone with a transparent image. - Select any image and convert it to a tracing image.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: in.space at none against AR Sketch's 3. in.space also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). AR Sketch's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 29 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
