Augmented reality offers a unique and innovative way to interact and connect with the natural world through the digital world. In an effort to better facilitate learning, this project makes use of web-based augmented reality. This project employs JavaScript libraries, AR.js and Three.js, to provide an augmented reality experience that better links real-world objects to information in a more digestible format. As well as discusses the many issues with technology and how to work around them and ultimately solve them.

Augmented Reality (AR) especially when used with mobile devices enables the creation of applications that can help students in chemistry learn anything from basic to more advanced concepts. In Chemistry specifically, the 3D representation of molecules and chemical structures is of vital importance to students and yet when printed in 2D as on textbooks and lecture notes it can be quite hard to understand those vital 3D concepts. ARsome Chemistry is an app that aims to utilize AR to display complex and simple molecules in 3D to actively teach students these concepts through quizzes and other features. The ARsome chemistry app uses image target recognition to allow students to hand-draw or print line angle structures or chemical formulas of molecules and then scan those targets to get 3D representation of molecules. Students can use their fingers and the touch screen to zoom, rotate, and highlight different portions of the molecule to gain a better understanding of the molecule's 3D structure. The ARsome chemistry app also features the ability to utilize image recognition to allow students to quiz themselves on drawing line-angle structures and show it to the camera for the app to check their work. The ARsome chemistry app is an accessible and cost-effective study aid platform for students for on demand, interactive, 3D representations of complex molecules.

This project aims to propose a novel approach for visualizing 4D geometry through the utilization of augmented reality (AR). While previous work has explored virtual reality (VR) as a means to bring 4D objects into a 3D environment, as well as 2D projections to display 4D geometry on screens, this project seeks to extend the possibilities by leveraging the immersive nature of AR technology. By overlaying virtual 4D objects onto the real world, users can experience a more tangible representation and gain a deeper understanding of the complex structures present in higher dimensions.
