About AR Browser [Lab11]

AR Browser allows you to discover web content and interfaces in your physical space.

Use the camera to find links associated with stuff in your environment and tap the marker to open the page within the app.

Pull down to exit the page and continue exploring.

Currently, the app only supports links provided by QR codes.

Future versions will identify some untagged objects as well and enable communication with local devices.
