Purdue Science K-12 Outreach Program’s high-tech sandbox

The Purdue Science K-12 Outreach Program's latest piece of educational equipment — the Augmented Reality (AR) Sandbox — combines cutting-edge technology with the childhood zeal of digging around in a large sandbox. A high-resolution projector shines topographical imagery onto the sandbox, and the colors and textures change as a student or teacher moves the sand. The movements can create lakes, mountains, volcanoes, rainstorms and other features. Find out more in the fall issue of Insights magazine.
