For my Maker Project I worked with the Bridge. The Bridge is a AR machine that allows you to scan an area and use it as the background for VR.You can play with a robot named Bridget in it. You can play fetch, open portals, and make furniture appear. The bridge is very interactive and has a lot of potential.
The reason I chose this project is that I really wanted to experiment with the Bridge and find it potential. So during science class I kept experimenting with it trying to scan places and get a good experience. I kept ending up with bad, ugly scans of the places because whenever someone walks through my scanning area it messes it up. I tried to deal with what I had, but whenever I looked away from what I scanned it would lag out. Also you could move the not scanned black stuff because it glitches. It was a very bad experience - just boring all around. [Teacher Note: We have a lot to learn, so we are not necessarily blaming the equipment yet!]
We have contacted Occipital (the people who make bridge) asking them tips on how to get some good scans. Overall I really enjoyed messing around with the bridge and I can't wait until we got some good scans!
