Magic Lantern: An Interactive Book Installation
INTERACT aims to develop and evaluate an interactive book installation, the “Magic Lantern Book,” that transforms showcasing information and collections into dynamic and engaging experiences. The installation comprises a display unit that projects multimedia content onto a physical book, providing an interactive augmented reality (AR) experience. Users can intuitively flip through the pages of the book and interact with the projected content. Our solution is designed for any organisation seeking to present information or content dynamically, effectively, and attractively.
Results will be updated in the future as the project progresses.
