VIRACUCHA QUINGA, Edwin Guillermo  y  MANOSALVAS GRANJA, Samy Patricio. GS-Sandbox Augmented Reality Prototype. Rev Politéc. (Quito) [online]. 2021, vol.47, n.2, pp.63-68. ISSN 2477-8990.  https://doi.org/10.33333/rp.vol47n2.06.

At the end of 2017, the development of a sandbox prototype called "GS-Sandbox" began, an initiative motivated by reviewing techniques developed in interactive museums such as in Japan, sites where Augmented Reality techniques have been implemented to raise awareness among Japanese citizens about natural phenomena that are recorded year after year. The objective of this study is to replicate an augmented reality (AR) topographic modeling device on a sandbox. It will be an interactive tool to raise awareness among students from schools, colleges, community and governmental entities about the dangers of natural phenomena, mainly those related to volcanic eruptions in Ecuador. Augmented reality is produced by superimposing virtual elements on real elements and by using computer technology, it can be visualized on a screen or projected to the real world.

Palabras clave : GS-Sandbox; Augmented Reality; Contours; Volcanoes; Virtual Reality; Lava.
