Discover Ancient Greece—reimagined through technology. Innovative technologies are opening new paths to explore and appreciate the archaeological wealth of Greece. CirculAR, an Augmented Reality application, offers visitors of archaeological sites and museums a completely new tour experience—one that feels as interactive and engaging as a video game. Using a smartphone or tablet, users can view monuments in their original form through scientifically documented 3D reconstructions, spatial mapping, and gamification techniques.

CirculAR is available free of charge on Android and iOS.
