AR MultiPendulum allows you to interact with virtual objects directly with your hand instead of tapping their location on a touchscreen. It brings a mesmerizing multi-pendulum simulation into augmented reality. You interact with this simulation through hand movements and modify it through a holographic interface.
Not only does this app bring augmented reality to a pendulum simulation, it is also the first app to simulate more than two pendulums. Additionally, by repurposing a VR headset for AR, this is the first app that gives users an affordable AR headset experience.

The interactive controls used in this app differ greatly from most other interactions on iOS. PLEASE THOROUGHLY READ THE FOLLOWING TUTORIAL BEFORE USING THIS APP.

AR MultiPendulum allows users to interact with virtual objects directly with their hand instead of tapping an object's location on a touchscreen. It brings a mesmerizing multi-pendulum simulation into augmented reality. Users interact with this simulation through hand movements and modify it through a holographic interface.

Not only does this app bring augmented reality to a pendulum simulation, it is also the first app to simulate more than two pendulums. Additionally, by repurposing a VR headset for AR, this is the first app that gives users an affordable AR headset experience. If a user has Google Cardboard, they can turn their iPhone into an AR headset that renders their surroundings in VR, based on images acquired using their device’s camera.

Some of the latest iOS devices have a built-in LiDAR scanner, which allows a device to understand the 3D shape of its surroundings. On these devices, this app uses the scanner to more realistically render the user's surroundings and reconstruct the 3D position of their hand.
