We partner with GURU here in Balboa Park on a number of projects - a wayfinding park-wide app with some points-of-interest AR experiences overlaying historic photos of key buildings and gardens, and the San Diego Museum of Art’s App with a couple of awesome AR experiences - the "Open Jaw of Awe" came out of the responses we got on those. The SDMA App and others are available for download.
Their VR pilots are excellent which they’ve demo’ed at various conferences. They have a Step into the Painting concept which literally does what its says, and when you turn around to look out at the world from within the painting, the world is rendered in the style of the painting you’re in. Has to be experienced, er… which is the whole point. They’ll be in Pittsburgh.
