Appendino, María José; Carboni, Lucía; Tosello, María Elena

Conference full papers:

With the increasing popularization of technologies such as Augmented Reality -AR- and Virtual Reality -VR-, interest aroused in studying the incorporation of these media into design disciplines higher education. The main objective of this investigation was to integrate VR and AR into the lessons, in order to motivate a meaningful learning process for students. The project was developed for a subject corresponding to the first year of the university careers of Architecture, Visual Design, and Industrial Design. This device was effectively implemented for the dictation of virtual classes, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
