Megafauna Central in Alice Springs has extended its visitor offering with the launch of an exciting, new Augmented Reality (AR) experience and a new HoloLens headset experience.
By downloading the free, user-friendly Indigital AR Smartphone App locals and visitors can journey back to the late Miocene epoch and get up close to extinct megafauna that roamed Central Australia 8-million years ago.
The App will give users a unique experience as they wander around Todd Street Mall to discover the behaviour of a Dromaius arleyekweke, the dwarf emu, and to roam alongside Alcoota megafauna such as large marsupial herbivores called Plaisiodon.
This unique adventure also allows App users to walk amongst the Megafauna across many different Alice Springs sites including:
- ANZAC Hill
- Todd River, adjacent to Undoolya Road and Leichardt Terrace
