AR Book — Animal Portal

An exploratory AR reading experience built around Dieter Braun's Animals of the South — making books come to life with augmented reality. The project transformed book illustrations into interactive 3D models with hand-painted textures, leaf particle systems, and animation. Users scan pages to reveal 3D animals in their environment, with habitat information and sound design including ambient music and animal effects. Built as part of the MA in Virtual & Augmented Reality at Goldsmiths.
