WART (the Winchester Augmented Reality Team) will meet on Tuesday evening from 7pm to 8:30pm, February 11th, 2025 in the Large Meeting Room at the Winchester Public Library, 80 Washington Street, Winchester MA 01890.
Let's share ideas on what local artists think about extending their art into AR for 2025. If you have an idea you wish to explore and work on, please send a note to [email protected] and we can work out how realistic it is with available options.
Using AR as an alternative way to present information; for example, a tour of local sites with historical significance can reveal bits of history that are right here in town. The conversation is not limited to artists and is available to anyone who sees an opportunity to explore sharing their information using AR to present it via images, video, green screen video, portals (360 view) - image and video, attached or standalone soundtracks.
Demonstrations of existing AR installations around Winchester can easily be done with the Hoverlay app. If you have not already used the Hoverlay app install for free from::
