# |AR| Studio 40: The Field

Augmented Reality Site Model with Rhino + Grasshopper, Fologram & Blender

**Melbourne Design Week 2021**

**Project developed by Dr. Rochus Urban Hinkel**, in collaboration with **MSD Makerspaces: NExT Lab & Fab Lab**.\
**Studio 40 Students:** Dylan Newell, Gaby Miegeville Little, Liam Bradley Maddern-Wellington, Gina Dahl, Maria Bulmaga

The Field is a public mixed reality installation situated outside the NExT Lab. The base model was fabricated by the Fab Lab, whilst the augmented reality content was developed by students of Studio 40 and curated by NExT Lab.

## Processing

Models, especially trees were made very light-weight with low polycounts to allow for a smooth experience on the Hololens. Lighting effects such as shadows, ambient occlusion and basic material qualities were baked into the textures as well to ensure a smoother experience.

## Fologram

Rhino and grasshopper were used to stream the models to Fologram on the Hololens.

A grasshopper script controls the button input, showing/hiding batches of Rhino layers to display different student works in the model.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://ms-kb.msd.unimelb.edu.au/next-lab/case-studies-and-projects/or-ar-or-studio-40-the-field.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
