Through Augmented Reality (AR), users can overlay a map of Egypt onto their physical environment, where they can choose which temple they want to explore. Once a temple is selected the AR display will switch to cinematic VR. You’ll be transported into vivid 3D environments with immersive soundscapes telling the story of the Osirian mythology, transmitting the ancient wisdom of the temples, and allowing the viewer to witness history come to life.

Guiding this spiritual journey is the work of Normandi Ellis, acclaimed for her profound books Awakening Osiris and Imagining the World into Existence. Her expertise in Egyptian spirituality and myth weaves a rich narrative that invites users to reflect deeply on the wisdom and symbols embedded within the temples.

Awaken Osiris XR will have 8 scenes with 6 degrees of freedom (6DoF) exploration. Eight photorealistic environments where you can roam freely in any direction. It’s not just about looking; it’s about moving and experiencing these sacred spaces as if you were physically there. Immerse yourself in detailed, lifelike reconstructions that blur the lines between the digital and the real.

This isn't a virtual tour—it's a thrilling spiritual odyssey where technology and ancient wisdom collide, offering a truly unforgettable experience.
HOLOGRAPHIC
AR MAP
INSPIRATION
The map should be integrated into the wall of the new Meta Quest 3S Operating system and should be able to pinned or expanded into a 3d AR map.
Here are some examples of the texture and feel of what we would like to achieve with the map. It should have a holographic quality, animating into view, its depth and texture created by grey-blue dots.
It will have the temples highlighted represented by their Hieroglyphs and English names which can be highlighted and selected by touch.
