Ocean Climate Change AR vs Biotope AR

Get ready to dive into the depths of our oceans with an exciting application that brings the impact of human activity and climate change to life on your very own desk! Using augmented reality (AR), explore three captivating topics: Sea Level, Sea Temperature, and Sea Surface Currents, as you visualize the data directly on your personal globe. The incredible data comes straight from EMODnet Physics, the European Marine Observation and Data Network for physical data (https://emodnet.ec.europa.eu/en/physics). Delve deeper into specific geographical areas or subjects with fascinating points of interest for each topic. And that's not all! Thanks to an awesome collaboration with The Ocean Race, you can also access mind-blowing data collected by sailing vessels racing around the world (https://www.theoceanrace.com/en/racing-with-purpose). Get ready to discover the impact and changes that affect our precious oceans and join the movement to preserve them for future generations!

Biotope AR transforms any flat surface into a living, breathing ecosystem — right on your kitchen table, desk, or floor. Place one of 8 real climate zones in augmented reality and watch it come alive. Control sunlight, rainfall and temperature with simple sliders. Trigger floods, frost, heat waves or drought and watch your ecosystem respond in real time. WHAT'S INSIDE 8 REAL BIOMES Tropical, Temperate, Arctic, Desert, Rainforest, Savanna, Tundra, Mediterranean. Each with authentic flora, fauna, weather and climate data. LIVING FAUNA Procedurally animated birds with full wing rigs, 6 insect species with segmented bodies and wings, butterflies, and fireflies that glow after dark. Every creature responds to the health of your ecosystem. DAY AND NIGHT CYCLE Watch the sun arc across your table, colors shift from golden dawn to deep night. Speed up to 10x to watch a full day in seconds. FOUR SEASONS Switch between Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Foliage color, ground texture and snowfall change dynamically. REAL WEATHER Rain falls, snow drifts, fog rolls in. Plants wilt in drought, insects disappear in frost, the pond ripples in heavy rain. 3D EXPLORER No camera? No problem. A full 3D mode with pan and pinch orbit. Zero camera access required. BIOME GUIDE Deep-dive into all 8 climate zones. Temperature ranges, rainfall data, CO2 role, key species, threats and fascinating facts. ECOLOGY QUIZ 12 questions across all biomes. Instant feedback, fact reveals after every answer, final score summary. BIODIVERSITY SCORE A live 0 to 100 score tracking plant, insect and bird populations. Watch it rise and fall as conditions change. THE DEAL No ads. No subscription. No paywall. No tracking. Just the app. LANGUAGE Full English and German interface. Switch anytime in Settings. TECHNICAL AR mode: iPhone 6s or later, iOS 17, camera required. 3D mode: all devices, no camera needed.
