Island University Professor Revolutionizes Museum Visit with Augmented Reality App
Cell phone technology is once again revolutionizing the way we experience the world around us. For example, a visit to the Art Museum of South Texas (AMST) is no longer just a casual walk through the exhibits – it’s now an interactive, immersive experience thanks to an app called IDET ARTS. IDET ARTS was created by Dr. David Squires, Assistant Professor in the Master of Science Program in Instructional Design and Educational Technology (IDET) at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. IDET ARTS uses Augmented Reality (AR) which can be defined as interactive, programmable content, including multimedia like custom videos content, audio clips, virtual tours and 3D graphics that are overlaid or superimposed onto other digital media or real-life content and locations. ARTS standings for Augmented Reality Transmedia Storytelling.
