สำรวจที่หายไปเมืองเวนิส Zakynthos กับ app ความเป็นจริงนี้ผสม

Are you travelling to Zakynthos (Zante)? Would you like to travel back in time? This application offers a unique experience of mixed reality, where you can have a walk in the old city of Zakynthos.

If you are not travelling to Zakynthos don't worry, the app can teleport you there. just find an open space and use the app.

On 1953 a catastrophic earthquake destroyed Zakynthos town. Zakynthos was one of the richest towns in Greece build with unique Venitian architecture. Today the new town is modern and has almost no resemblance to the old town.

In this project we experiment with an innovative technology (Villusion) where a 3D virtual world of the old town (as it was built 100 years ago) is masked on the real world. The Timemachine android application makes possible to explore the old town just by walking through the new town.

In order to do that you have to be outdoors (since we need a GPS signal). If you are in the center of Zakynthos Town you can just start using it. If not then you have to press the calibrate button first.

THIS IS A BETA APPLICATION

Don't expect to work 100%

We would very much appreciate your feedback. Please contact us at info@sofar.gr
