We Combined Augmented Reality Tech With Illustrated Children’s Books Of Amazing Women
My partner Sneha and I realized one day that we never read much about amazing women as kids. We started researching and discovered that there were so many who made a difference to the world that we never knew about. So we decided to turn them into beautifully illustrated children’s books.
But illustrations can still be a little boring especially for children these days so we brought in an AR team to help turn the illustrations to life. It’s still in the development process, but we’re creating an AR experience where children can enter the buildings they see in the books and even interact with the objects! This will all be hosted on an application of course, and accessible through phones and iPads.
I’m really passionate about this, because I really want children today to grow up normalizing women’s excellence, and to see how far we can develop AR technology for children to make something incredible out of it.
If this resonates with you too, you can back us on Kickstarter: http://kck.st/2hTQGxe

This is just the start of the AR. We’re working with the tech team to build an even more engaging and interactive experience.
this sounds amazing! I wish you so much luck with it because my Daughter will need it.
Yes! I really wish I grew up reading about all these women too. You can purchase a book for her on Kickstarter at a lower cost than when we start bringing it into stores next year :) http://kck.st/2hTQGxe
