How to view these Objects


On newer devices, you should be able to use the augmented reality (AR) feature in your Web browser to view the item. Alternatively, you may download the object from the link and use a separate app to view the object in AR.


For example, on Apple iOS devices (iPhone, iPad), you should be able to use the AR cube icon at the lower right of the object to view the item. Touch the cube icon, then "Allow" to open and view the 3D object with your device's camera.

You may need to move the device around so that it can find an appropriate location for you to place the object. The image below shows an AR object displayed on a table using an iPad.

How These Items Were Created

The objects were scanned using Apple's Reality Composer for iPad on an iPad Pro to create USDZ VR object files.

These items are then converted to GLB format using a stand alone program or an on-line converter. There are several available. For these models, I used the FileStar* conversion program or the on-line site ASPOSE

The objects are displayed in the pages using Model-Viewer and the Google .js source api.

Please note: If the bird is not displaying, try reloading the page. The download seems to get stuck sometimes.
