Embodied Axes is an Arduino-powered controller for 3D imagery and data visualizations in AR
Arduino Team — May 25th, 2020
Researchers across several universities have developed a controller that provides tangible interaction for 3D augmented reality data spaces.
The device is comprised of three orthogonal arms, embodying X, Y, and Z axes which extend from a central point. These form an interactive space for 3D objects, with linear potentiometers and a rotary button on each axis as a user interface.
At the heart of it all is an Arduino Mega, which takes in data from the sliders to section a model. This enables users to peer inside of a representation with an AR headset, “slicing off” anything that gets in the way by defining a maximum and minimum view plane. The sliders are each motorized to allow them to move together and to provide force feedback.
