Everyone knows that dinosaurs USED to roam the Earth. What if I told you that they were still here? That you just needed to take a closer look?
All you need is your smartphone and your imagination and you will start seeing dinosaurs everywhere (using Google AR)!
How to Spot a Dinosaur:
- Make sure you have the Google Browser app downloaded on your smart device (we use an iPhone).
- Locate and open Google browser
- Type in what you are looking for. In this case, we are searching for Dinosaurs. You can type in “dinosaurs” or use the list below for a specific dinosaur.
- Look for the large, animated image that accompanies the words “See a xxx in your space”
- Click on the “View in 3D” button
- Allow Google to access your camera
- Point your camera into an open space and slowly move the lens side to side. You want to make sure you are in a well lit area.
- Use one finger to move it around, two fingers to scale it. Physically walk around your new 3D AR pet to see all sides of it and interact with it.
- Voila! Meet your new family pet and introduce him to your kids!
