Ocean Pets makes it possible for kids to independently scan in a real-world object into a virtual world. Pokemon Go is just one example of AR experiences accessed by children. We've seen lots of different AR apps appear recently where toy makers want to enhance kids experiences by mixing real-world objects in digital environments. Unlike virtual reality which replaces the real world with a simulated world, AR aims to enhance your perception of reality.

We'll update the post with details soon.ДЄugmented Reality ExperienceThe Ocean Pets app introduces young kids to the ideas of augmented reality (AR). It's unclear whether there is an add-on pack to get these moulds, but it says coming soon.

We did notice there were more ocean creatures in the app, which we didn't have moulds for. Once they are happy with their aquarium, kids can use it as a picture frame or take a selfie with them in the fish tank! There's also voiceВ recording capabilities built into the app.

They can also take photos or record 10-second videos of their fish swimming in the aquarium. In the app, kids can learn a few facts about the types of fish in the aquarium. The kids were delighted to see their own fish come to life in the water. We were quite impressed with the accuracy of representationВ of the crafted fish in the virtual aquarium. Just open, scan your fish and you're ready to play. Parents may appreciate the fact that no sign up is required to use this app. We had no trouble finding and downloading it from the AppStore.
