Computing is fun and not as scary as some may think; the sessions aimed to show this. Some the resources used and further links are available at the end of the blog. The tweets below give a flavour of the event.
We've been exploring AR and VR with our young STEAM ers this morning and now they're going to explore campus looking for our students geolocated 3D artwork. If you ever want to see it around campus the app is called uongamesARt and is on the Apple and Google stores :D @STEMatUN— 🕹🎨 iain douglas 🎮💀 (@GameArtAcademic) June 26, 2019

Thanks for this info, I was not sure about AR game development, but now I am clear about it. I have a best team of AR game developers and share it with my connection. I am not too keen on making money and develop ar software. I am enjoying just writing. Thanks once again.
