Kerala startup wants to leverage AR to help teachers outside classroom

A trio in their late 20s wants to change how fundamental science concepts are being taught at schools across India. Their solution, an app that uses augmented reality (AR) technology as the foundation to explore basic science concepts in three-dimensional ways, making learning fun and less boring. Primarily aimed at teachers, the TutAR app gives educators a new way to develop students’ understanding of science through 3D models and improve education for the next generation.

“We are not trying to be an Edtech platform that is replacing traditional classrooms,” Shyam Pradeep Alil, Co-founder and CTO of TutAR, tells indianexpress.com. “The idea behind the app was always to make learning interactive through technology.”
