Narrator AR: Kids Writing with Augmented Reality

Technology in education is moving at a fast pace. As early childhood educators look for ways to integrate technology into their classroom, they find quality tools are scarce.

Pioneering immersive technology for kindergarten, the new Narrator AR app uses augmented reality to animate handwritten letters off the page. It encourages children at this vital stage of early childhood education to engage the essential fine motor and cognitive skills associated with handwriting.

With simple and intuitive controls children choose a rocket or unicorn character to trace the letters they have written. The letters appear in augmented reality as a layer of almost magic rocket dust or rainbows over child’s original work.

Enjoy Narrator AR now available on the App Store or Google Play.
