Students in Mr. Christensen's 6th grade science class are getting the first look at the new AR (Augmented Reality) Sandbox. The sandbox will draw contoured lines and colors as soon as the sand in the box is manipulated in any way. The program can also make rain and water appear, so students can learn about water systems and flood plains interactively. Over the last several months, Mr. Christensen built the sandbox and Ken Steffes programmed the computer to run the projector to make all of the effects work. What a cool project!
MVAOCOU BPA would like to thank its sponsors for their continued support!
