The animated 3D electron model is displayed in the center area and can be viewed from different angles. In detail view, I wanted to visualize the information of each element with beautifully rendered text in 3D space. To make the transition between table view and detail view smooth and natural, I made it similar to the physical interaction of a box opening in real life. With gaze and air tap, the user could open up a detailed view of each element. The surface of each box would be translucent so that the user could get a rough idea of the element's volume. Designįor the default view of the periodic table, I imagined three-dimensional boxes that would contain the electron model of each element. Giving users the chance to visualize the element's electron model was another interesting part of this project. Since each element has many data points that are displayed with text, I thought it would be great subject matter for exploring typographic composition in a 3D space.

BackgroundĪfter I first experienced HoloLens, I knew I wanted to experiment with a periodic table app in mixed reality. They can visually understand an element's electron shell and its nucleus - which is composed of protons and neutrons. Users can learn about the elements with animated 3D models.

It incorporates the basic interactions of HoloLens such as gaze and air tap. Periodic Table of the Elements visualizes the chemical elements and each of their properties in a 3D space. Recorded with HoloLens 2 using Mixed Reality Capture About the app
