For ASC members in Adelaide:

Augmenting our realities Thursday May 13 6-7:30pm The Science Exchange

Augmented reality, or AR, is a technology that inserts digital information and graphics over what you can see in the real world. Using AR extends people’s freedom and creativity in a wide variety of fields, from art to industry, gaming and landscape gardening. The technology can be as large scale as a warehouse or small enough to wear as a helmet, backpack, or even a watch or tattoo. Join us for an evening exploring the exciting possibilities of AR in professional, personal and artistic arenas. Professor Bruce Thomas from the University of South Australia and Dr Roy Davies from the Auckland University of Technology will show you how AR works and what it’s good for, and demonstrate some of the equipment being used in the field. In association with the Division of Information Technology, Engineering & the Environment, UniSA
