Educational Potential
An awesome learning game where you will find the geometric shapes around you using your phone's camera. Thanks to augmented reality provides immersive interactive action, showing you the connection between real world and theory. Combines education and fun using gamification to teach geometry. The more than 100 challenges to play allow for a split into difficulties based on the curriculum of the first school years.
Learning Object / Suggested activities with students
The application allows you to play with seven different geometry topics to play and learn: polygons, 3D shapes, circles, symmetry, vertices, lines and angles. In addition to being able to play and observe reality, the game also includes eighteen unique learning chapters prepared with the American National Council of Teachers of Mathematics

I like the question in the title and the picture. Seems a fancy way to think about geometry.
