Augmented Reality

The Whole Story project enables users to experience and share the stories of brilliant women. The public was also invited to help write the story by uploading their own 2D or 3D female statues for prominent display around the world. After six weeks of rapid development, the project launched only weeks prior to augmented reality, allowing for ground plane detection. It was the first AR ground plane consumer app in-market in 12 countries.
