"Finally, a reason to put my phone UP instead of down."

What is Aura AR?
Point your phone camera at any monument, statue, or historical structure. Aura AR uses computer vision to identify it in under 100 milliseconds, then queries a global open-knowledge database — returning verified historical context, construction dates, architectural details, notable figures, and timelines — all overlaid directly in your camera view.
Every fact displayed by Aura AR is sourced from Wikidata — the world's largest open knowledge graph, with over 100 million verified items — and Wikipedia. The same sources trusted by Google, academic institutions, and researchers worldwide. Data is community-verified and continuously updated.
Aura AR is used by leisure travellers, history enthusiasts, parents with children, students on educational field trips, and professionals in heritage education and AR training programs. The app covers over 3 million monuments and historical sites across 195 countries — from world-famous landmarks to hidden local gems.
Aura AR is actively used for educational field trips, heritage training programs, and institutional AR learning contexts. By delivering real-time, verified historical data at physical sites, the app removes the need for pre-loaded guides and creates genuinely immersive on-location experiences.
