The future of education

Chemistry and Biology Education Using Commodity Web Augmented Reality -in any device!

Thanks to modern educational content using commodity web-based augmented reality in our moleculARweb site and in Google, students, teachers, and science communicators can now more easily see, grasp, communicate, and interact with the most complex concepts of chemistry and biology. For free, using their smartphones, tablets, and computers, in several languages.
