A game-like AR book, to immerse readers in stories by allowing them to play an active role in the story – the story moves on according to reader’s choice, referencing the style of “choose your own adventure”.

We generate an original story based on an old classic poem – The Owl and the Pussycat, and created the 3D scene and animation for each page. Reader can scene the image at the right bottom concer to get the AR scene popping up. And we have branched the poem to create different paths in each scene, readers can make their choice by placing the options cards to the corresponding spots as indicated in the AR scene. The system will detect the options of the reader and trigger a pop-up UI to guide the reader to turn to the coressponding page according to their choice.

It is an project to experiment with interaction blending the real and virtual worlds, to get the action in the real world trigger responds in the virtual world, to blur the boundary between “real” and “virtual”.
