OCSFABRICATION

An Augmented Reality (AR) Sandbox is an interactive educational tool that combines a physical sandbox with digital technology. This combination creates dynamic, real-time visualizations of topographic maps and water simulations. It is a fantastic tool for teaching and learning about geography, geology, and hydrology. It helps users understand concepts like contour lines, watersheds, and the impact of topography on water flow.

The Mobile AR Sandbox has a 24×36-inch sand bed. With the monitor in use, the complete setup measures 26 inches wide × 39 inches long × 82 inches high; with the monitor stowed in its protective case, the system is 78 inches high and fits through a standard 32-inch doorway.

The system weighs approximately 300 lb with its mobile cases. It assembles or disassembles without tools in a few minutes and can be transported in a small SUV.
