PalaeoGo is an application that shows the potential of AR technology as a valuable educational tool. The smartphone is ubiquitous these days and is a source of information, entertainment and education and PalaeoGo prospers from this. Through augmented reality, PalaeoGo uses a phone camera and overlays information and computer generated assets to bring extinct megafauna back to life!
Having featured at the GREAT Festival of Innovation (Hong Kong), BFX and Festival of Learning (Bournemouth), The Etches Collection Museum (Dorset) and the Silk Road International Expo (Xian) and New Scientist Live, PalaeoGo is ready to take you back in time wherever you are!
There are seven beasts for you to interact with and take selfies with - if they let you! You can tweet us your prehistoric pictures @Palaeo_Go or using #PalaeoGo.
You can find us at http://www.palaeogo.org/.
If you have any problems with the application, contact us at

PalaeoGo will require access to your camera in order to function correctly.
