I just made this free AR app to show a detailed model of the Colosseum in 1:1, 1:10 or 1:100 scale. The plan is to add more real-size models with upcoming updates. Let me know what you think - does it work well? Is it interesting for you?

That looks neat! I&#x27;m going to check it out.<p>It gave me a related app idea. Maybe it would require gmaps integration and probably wouldn&#x27;t be AR, so probably a different app altogether. But, what about an app that plopped famous ancient landmarks into my neighborhood? And let me &quot;walk&quot; out of my front door &amp; walk down to the Colosseum or Great Pyramids? That would give a really cool sense of scale because it would juxtapose the environment I know best (my home) with the environment I&#x27;m learning about. (If anybody wants to take this idea feel free, I don&#x27;t know mobile development)<p>Tangents aside I will check out your very cool looking app today.
