Woorld
An experimental game that splashes in the waters of Augmented Reality
Woorld is an alternative reality game built for Google’s Tango computer vision platform. Hold up a phone camera to see digital characters overlaid onto your surroundings. You can fill your own home with silly characters, and then explore their behavior and discover their secrets. You can invite family and friends to view your Woorld through a shared screen. This technology could be used for playtime and education of young children, all over the world, in the future.
