Magic Map
Read full descriptionHide full description
Magic Map is an augmented reality app with an interactive map of French monumental sculpture. It offers a playful, three-dimensional and immersive preview of an artwork while being at a distant place. This app is the result of an experiment undertaken as part of the doctoral research of Mete Kutlu in collaboration with the developer Theuns Botha. The experiment sought to combine augmented reality and photogrammetry to innovate in digital scenography, mediation and humanities. As part of a series of experiments baptised as Dream Pixels, it was realised with the support of Cristiana Mazzoni, senior expert at Comet Lab and director of AUSser research lab at the Paris-Belleville School of Architecture.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Magic Map at none against Omniscient's 11. Magic Map also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Omniscient's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 5 days). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
