Visualizations of fluids in augmented reality

With the help of a mobile camera or webcam, an interactive air flow simulation
and the tracking of real-world objects, develop a flow visualization tool box in
which users interactively explore approximations of the real-world air flow around
real objects.
• Since the flows respond dynamically to real-world objects, the influence of
obstacle size and air flow speed on the creation and movement of vortices can be
explored interactively using geometry-based flow visualization techniques,
including Path lines and streak lines.
• We see our setup mainly used in an educational context or for science
communication
