AR Viking Duel | Trelleborg Viking Fortress, National Museum of Denmark

In collaboration with: Trelleborg Viking Fortress, Nationalmuseum

Target Medium: Smartphone/Tablet

Trelleborg Viking Fortress is a museum dedicated to telling and sharing the history of the Vikings. The Viking Age in Denmark stretches from the years 800-1050. Trelleborg Viking Fortress wanted to give their visitors a site-specific experience that gives Viking enthusiasts and visitors a deeper understanding of how the Vikings fought through dynamic and sensuous communication of Viking battle.

To develop the experience, Khora developed an AR app, that is either used on-site by Trelleborg Viking Fortress, or by the individual visitor who can download the app to their smartphone/tablet. The app allows visitors, through their camera, to experience a battle between two enemy Viking warriors while their story is being told. Throughout the experience, guests can study and zoom in on the Viking’s weapons, shields and clothing.
