Augmented reality museum exhibitions with Figmin XR
About this session
Date: 5th March 2025, 12.15-12.45 (FAB Media Symposium Space)
Presenters: Dr Robert O'Toole
Main follow-up contact: Robert O'Toole
Overview: Create and run a museum exhibition anywhere, with digital artefacts floating in the air as participants walk around the space. Figmin XR is the killer app for mixed reality headsets, now also coming to tablets and phones. We have been using it for a couple of years with students, staff, and school groups, to create stunning augmented reality experiences. It's easy to use, and makes it simple to add images, video, audio, text, drawings, and 3D objects (including scans made on a phone). We will also consider how we might extend this once programmable interactivity is added to the app (hopefully this year).
