The mixed-reality app brings you closer to atoms than ever before:
Grab protons, neutrons, and electrons right there in your physical space and assemble them into complete atoms.
Step by step, the structure of matter unfolds before your eyes –
intuitive, playful, fascinating.
AToM BUiLDER turns Chemistry into a Hands-On Mixed Reality Adventure.
The App redefines how we learn the fundamentals of chemistry by transforming traditionally dry content into an engaging, playful experience. Instead of reading about atomic structures, users step directly into a mixed reality environment where atoms become tangible, interactive objects.
Leveraging Hand-Tracking and Hand-Grab Mechanics, AToM BUiLDER allows players to literally pick up and assemble atoms with their own hands. Realistic Interactions enhance immersion, making the learning process intuitive and memorable.
The project is built with Unity 6 and the Meta All-in-One SDK for Meta Quest 3. Custom C# scripts power the core gameplay loops, interaction systems, and visual effects.
AToM BUiLDER blends science, play, and XR technology to make learning not just effective - but genuinely fun.
