Take an augmented-reality tour of a 3D-printed model of earth with the EARTH Globe from AstroReality. Made with polyresin material and designed to boost STEM skills, the EARTH Globe has a 4.7" diameter and boasts a 4,000 dpi printing resolution. A downloadable AR app for iOS and Android lets students explore the globe's surface and learn about the earth's geology, ecology, civilizations, and environment.
Integrating EARTH into STEM
Make learning a group experience, and empower students to learn through immersive content and understanding data in a visual way. Students can apply their knowledge in real-world scenarios, and guide themselves through experience-based educational projects.
An Adventure around the World
Explore our blue planet throughout time and space with the interactive EARTH globe and the downloadable EARTH augmented reality app. Version 2.0 of the app adds new content in humanities growth, geology distributions, migrational movements of animals, climate patterns, and more.
Locations
Travel around the world by taking a look at the main cities from the Globalization and World Cities Research Network. In version 2.0 of the EARTH AR app, more than 100 new cities have been added.
Life
Using the comprehensive GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility) animal data resource, learn about the creatures on our planet with geographic locations and historical timelines since the 19th century.
Geology
Updated and added more in-depth NASA data and research on the geology of earth, including volcano, river, and lake distribution.
Humanity
Go back in time and see the growth of humanity from 1950 to 2018, and see how our effect on CO2 levels has impacted the planet.
Augmented Realty App
To explore the interactive EARTH globe, simply open the downloadable AstroReality EARTH augmented reality app for iOS and Android, scan the QR code stamped on the globe, then point your smartphone's camera at your 3D-printed model of earth for an immersive experience. You should hold your device about 7.9" from the model for the best results.
Intricate Details
Polyresin, 3D printing, and precise paint-pigment ratios help to bring surface details of the oceans, mountains, and land masses on the EARTH globe to life.
Craftsmanship
EARTH is made with eco-friendly paint and a sustainable production process. The globe is constructed using 3D printing technology with a 98% modeling accuracy, an error precision of 0.001", and a printing resolution of 4,000 dpi. Each unit is finished with a hand-painted layer to bring the lush details of earth to life.
