HomeTelescopr

Telescopr is a virtual reality telescope designed to help people see and explore the history of public spaces. Our design is inspired by the telescopes that you might find at popular tourist viewpoints, but rather than magnifying distant objects, it shows 3D models of places as they looked in the past.

Where can I try Telescopr?

• 2020:
  • Two separate installations as part of Swansea's Copr Bay developments: Lookout, a temporary deployment to show the vision during construction; and, two permanent installations in the new Coastal Park to show the history of the site.
• 2019:
  • Waterfront Museum
  • Hafod-Morfa Copperworks (as part of the Man Engine event)
  • Computational Foundry
  • CHI 2019, Glasgow

How do I set up Telescopr for my own VR content?

We'd love to hear from you if you're interested in setting up your own Telescopr exhibit. Please get in touch!
