Co_LAB Academic Book of the Future

In May 2016, co_LAB undertook an intensive, interdisciplinary workshop that brought together students and staff from across the University of Lincoln to explore the future of the academic book. The output of the project were a series of concept visualisations for an augmented reality surface that would interact with books and mobile devices to provide additional information and functionality to enhance the reading experience. We have since developed working AR prototypes, which we will be demonstrating at the British Library later this month!

We were also commissioned to produce a short documentary for the wider AHRC funded Academic Book of the Future project, which will be premiered during Academic Book Week:
