This augmented reality Earth model makes a great remote learning tool
TL;DR: Go around the world from the comfort of your own home with this augmented reality Earth model from AstroReality for $189.99, a 20% savings as of April 22.
Have you ever wanted to explore Earth? Well, now you can.
AstroReality EARTH is an interactive, 3D-printed globe designed for out-of-this-world exploration. With the app, you simply point your camera at your model of Earth, and then unlock a whole bunch of cool info.
EARTH accurately portrays changes to our planet over time, from global warming and glacial recession to the effects and extinction of its animals and wildlife. It even shows the world-wide impact of COVID-19.
For anyone with kids at home from school right now (okay that’s basically everyone with kids, yes?), this makes a great supplement to at-home STEM education and can (hopefully) keep them occupied — at least for a little while.
They’ll be able to travel around the world by taking a look at the major cities, watch how humans have populated and connected over time, meet animals across various continents, and observe geography, climate, and weather. They can also deep dive into the role of oceans, and skyrocket into the clouds, gases, and storms that support life on Earth.
The AstroReality EARTH has also been updated with data visualization to help you understand the COVID-19 pandemic’s spread and impact across the world. Considering the amount of content featured in this augmented reality model, it is no surprise that the AstroReality EARTH is already 500% overfunded on Kickstarter.
Let’s be honest, videos speak louder than words, so check it out in action:
You can start exploring the incredible planet you live on for just $189.99 — that’s 20% off with this special deal.
