Using virtual reality to immerse people in history has become increasingly common in recent months, but a new collaboration between IBM and the 。 New York Times'。 T Brand Studio instead relies on augmented reality. 。
The Outthink Hidden part of the T Brand Studio AR app allows users to visit 150 locations around the U.S. to discover AR statues of leaders in science and technology. 。
SEE ALSO:Now you can experiment with makeup in augmented reality 。Many locations feature an empty pedestal affixed with a QR code. When that QR code is triggered by the app, an AR statue appears, which can be moved around 360 degrees. Each virtual statue will also offer access to biography information, as well as images and audio content.。
Thanks for signing up! 。 Among the science and technology greats featured are Mary Walton (inventor and engineer), Bessie Blount Griffin (inventor), Mary Jackson (engineer and mathematician), Katherine Johnson (physicist) and as well as six other historic figures. If some of the names and the term "hidden" sound familiar in this particular context, it's because the app was inspired by the recent film。Hidden Figures 。
, which depicts the story of unheralded black women who worked for NASA during the early '50s space race.。

Pokémon Go。
After the initial rollout of the AR statues around the nation, in the following months the app will allow users to access the statues from any location while using the app. The free app can be downloaded on both iOS and Android devices starting Wednesday.。
