AR Animals in Google Search

Augmented Reality, USA (2019)

View lions and tigers and bears in your space, right from Google Search.

"Now you can use AR to place 3D digital objects right in your own space directly from Search or from websites on Chrome. Learn more about everything from NASA’s Curiosity Rover to human anatomy to animals like hedgehogs, penguins, and sharks, with a greater sense of context and scale." - Google

We launched AR Search with twenty-five animated animals with sound. The challenge here was making realistic animals that are still lightweight enough to be served via Mobile AR. You can access this experience by Googling one of the animals listed below via mobile, clicking on the 'View in 3D' button in the Knowledge Panel, then selecting 'View in Your Space'.
