Introducing

An augmented reality viewing scope

Historiscope is an Augmented Reality (AR) viewing scope. This device acts like a window into the historical past. Inspired by a tourist telescope’s design, this device fuses authentic history with AR technology.

In short, instead of providing a closer view of the historical location in front, it builds a relevant scenario from the past, something from when the structure was in use.

In an immersive, intuitive, and imaginative way, the Historiscope paints the most accurate picture of history as you see through the lenses.

What makes Historiscope perfect for a heritage destination?

Historical Accuracy
Attention To Design
Outdoor Friendly
Augmented Reality
Immersive experience

While our technology is top-notch, it is the historical accuracy that we take the most pride in. Backed by the research of our expert teams, every historical experience provided by us is as accurate as it gets.

We liaison with historical experts and 3D designers who follow a strict process of informed content design. From scriptwriting to the architectural and material reconstruction of the monument, everything is a collaborative process.

Rough and tough, the Historiscope hardware can take heat, rain, snow and more. It has been tested for outdoor use.

Gone are the days of guide books and pamphlets. Keeping in mind the needs of a modern tourist, we have developed sophisticated AR experiences that beautifully work with constructive hardware.

Visiting a historical location is immersive enough. But travelling back in time to what it used to be is a notch above. The Historiscope successfully does the latter.
