Abstract

The Antikythera mechanism is the oldest known analogue computer. Discovered off the coast of the Greek island of Antikythera, the Antikythera mechanism predicts and displays the position of astronomical bodies as well as astronomical phenomena. Due to its complexity, visualization of the gears movement can be very difficult. For my project I created an interactive Augmented Reality (AR) model of the Antikythera mechanism using Unity game engine. I hope this AR application exposes people to the Antikythera mechanism and its inner workings.
