Industrial Revolution
Augmented Reality App Experience
Using the power of augmented reality, students use their tablets or smartphones to layer 3D objects onto their real world—their desks, tables, floor, anywhere!
They can walk around the objects, interact with them, and see them from different angles for a more immersive, kinesthetic approach to learning.
Download the app for free from the App Store or Google Play. You can also scan the QR code to download 91HUB Hill AR.
Industrial Revolution
3D Web-Based Experience
No mobile devices in the classroom? No problem. Students can access web versions for use on Chromebooks, laptops, and desktops.
The web experience presents the 3D objects against a static classroom backdrop. Students get to engage with the objects and manipulate them using their trackpad, mouse, and/or keyboard controls.
Go to to access these free web experiences now!
NOTE: Web versions will not run on the internet browsers of smartphones or tablets. Use the app for those devices.
A 3-Part Pedagogical Approach
Each activity offers a familiar, three-step approach.
- Observe: Students watch a narrated animation within the app.
- Explore: Students interact with 3D objects and experiment at their own pace.
- Evaluate: Students apply knowledge by answering interactive questions.
Watch the video for a demo of the augmented reality app experience. Stay tuned for a demo of our web-based experience.Ìý

What Educators Say 91HUB Our Augmented Reality Experiences​
The students found the app extremelyÌýeasy to use. They were appropriatelyÌýchallenged by some of the exercises, butÌýthey weren’t discouraged at all. In fact, itÌýwas the opposite. They were so engagedÌýthat even when the bell rang, they didn’tÌýwant to leave the classroom and justÌýwanted to figure out the currentÌýchallenge.
I love how this is designed for theÌýstudents to work collaboratively orÌýindependently. It allows for students toÌýfoster that sense of independence with aÌýrich learning experience.
This app helps with the challenges thatÌýwe experienced by giving the students aÌý3D representation of the concepts thatÌýwe're learning. It's also super engaging soÌýthey're more interested in playing aroundÌýwith the concept.
