Hidden World
Created by Rachel Park Goto + Jane Friedhoff in New York, NY, USA , 2017
Whimsical animations spring to life in 3D space through an AR mobile app created as a collaboration between animator Rachel Park Goto, creative technologist Jane Friedhoff and Google Creative Lab. Without the traditional use of a planar or trigger system, this was a successful experiment in the next evolution of augmented reality allowing users to place forms and animated objects in any three dimensional space. By combining the Unity and ARCore platforms, the app is able to read each unique environment in real time. Using a system of green dots, the camera creates constant volumetric scans of the space within the app as the mobile device moves around it, untethering the AR world from markers and locations.
