The Augurscope is a shared Mixed Reality Interface for outdoors. It tracks its position, orientation and tilt to provide a view into a shared, collaborative virtual environment. It can be repositioned to view a virtual 3D space that is overlaid on the physical space it is located in. The Augurscope can be shared between multiple people.
Developed as part of the EU Shape Project. Leading to Augurscope Two.
