Background

The way we interact with a computer’s digital space is disconnected from the way we interact with the physical space around us. Augmented Reality (AR) introduces a new hybrid notion of space, where digital elements coexist within the physical domain. This presents an opportunity to change the way we interact with computers, using physical space as the medium through which we can interact with content.

The Process

Using Augmented Reality as a transitory space between the digital and physical realm we created an ARKit app that allow users to manipulate 3D content on their browsers. ScreenToPrint allows users to extract a digital model from a computer’s screen, drop it on a 3D printer, and print it in one seamless experience.
