One of the things I love about natural history museums is that you sometimes get to see real dinosaur bones. There is no substitute for seeing the fossilized remains of creatures that lived millions of years ago. If you want to see dinosaurs running around you will have to look to the movies, but a new exhibit tries to bring dinosaurs to life in a museum setting. Next week Canon will open its “Dinosaurs—Miracle of the Desert” exhibit in Chiba, Japan. This is not going to be your standard fossil casts and models display, but an entirely digital show featuring moving dinosaurs that visitors can see only by looking through special 3D goggles. Just make sure that you don’t run into anyone else while walking around!

This is cool and silly. Technology is a great way to engage kids in learning without them realizing. As I watch this video, I wonder if the girl will but the Lego box to play with the mundane cubes inside.
Putting images on a flat surface is really expanding into all kinds of territories.

This video is featured on the site and shows the latest AR aimed at teachers. The kids would LOVE this!!!!

This is Popular Science's second cover in AR. The 3-D projection is not as fun as the baseball cards, it is fun to think of textbooks showing the Battle of Bull run in 3-D or an octopus camouflaging in many different environments.

This is a cool video to teach students how this new technology is starting to revolutionize the workplace!

Wow your students with a new version of AR using baseball cards. Hopefully this technology will make its way into the classroom.

This video is sure to get your students brains buzzing! When you first try to explain what AR is to a group of middle students, they don't know and it is something that is hard to explain to them.Showing videos of what they are about to experience is a great introduction.

It is also nice for a change to know something about technology that they don't!
