Cahokia Mounds Releases Second Phase Of Popular Augmented Reality App
SPRINGFIELD – An expansion of Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site’s popular new augmented reality – or AR – app is now available to visitors.
The Grand Plaza AR tour launched Feb. 22 and joins the Monks Mound AR tour to offer a state-of-the-art experience for visitors. Users who purchased the Monks Mound app in December will receive The Grand Plaza free of charge upon updating their app.
The Grand Plaza AR tour begins behind the Interpretive Center, which is the location of an ancient residential area outside of the Palisade, and follows the concrete trail around the Twin Mounds.
In December, the Cahokia Mounds Museum Society (CMMS) launched the first phase of the product, which changes the way visitors experience Cahokia Mounds through leading-edge technology and catapulted the site to the forefront of Pre-Columbian interpretation.
