Octagon Studio Dinosaur 4D+ AR Flashcards - Interactive Augmented Reality Dinosaur Toy for Kids - Educational STEM Learning Game with App - 20 3D Cards (iOS & Android)

These cards are high quality and are exactly as advertised. Our grandson loves them.

This exceeded expectations by a long way! Just brilliant! I would throughly recommend this as the kids were totally hooked.

My 5 year old loves these cards. He loves using the iPad/phone and also loves dinosaurs. These cards really help to bring them to life. When out and about, I pop a couple of the cards in my handbag and with my phone they will keep him entertained while I manage a rare adult conversation with my other half! I do think £14.99 is pricey for them though - I don't think they will last that long before grubby hands and rough handling make them unusable, hence I've given them 4 stars, not 5.

Nice cards & facts unfortunately not compatible with the phone of the person I bought them for. Bit expensive for what they are

I got these cards for my grandson and he loves them

This is amazing! It actually appears like the dinosaurs are real and alive.

Bought these for my grandson . My daughter downloaded the app whilst he was at school and rang me to say it was amazing and she couldn't put it down, so yes I would recommend them. Apparently there lot's of facts which he loves.

A mix of animation and VR this is a good addition to the classroom. Needs a VR enabled smart device to work alongside the cards.

Me faltaron tarjetas, dice 26 venía embalado correctamente pero la cajita adentro venía con las piezas incompletas

- The dinousaur 4D cards looks so real. It was great to learn about different kind of dinosaurs. My 10 year old could actually identify them and get a lot of information on them. Also there is a VR mode with VR glasses which make dinosaurs come alive. The Animal 4D cards are also excellent. Great Product for children.

Las Tarjetas son una emocionante y educativa experiencia para entusiastas de los dinosaurios. Con 20 tarjetas diferentes, cada una con impresionantes modelos en 3D cuando se escanean con un dispositivo compatible, estas tarjetas ofrecen diversión y aprendizaje para todas las edades. Además de la fascinante experiencia visual, cada tarjeta incluye información sobre el dinosaurio representado, lo que las convierte en una herramienta educativa valiosa. Algunos dinosaurios los puedes mover y además ver su esqueleto. Si tienes gafas VR puedes ver algunos entornos con el dinosaurio, aquí la calidad deja mucho que desear... pero por lo demás está muy bien.

These cards are awesome! Our 6 year old son loves them.. including my 11year son and any adult around really! Downloading the free app is easy and in under 2 minutes. 20 cards in the pack, point your cell phone at a card and it works immediately with sound effects. The graphics are awesome too. You can learn about each dino and some of the cards have the option to make them walk around. At one time my son had the card on the floor in the kitchen and he walked the dino into the other room. These cards also have an option for virtual reality goggles. We tried them in the goggles and the cards worked great too. You are standing in the jungle looking at the moving dinosaur! Our son will show these cards to anyone who is willing to watch.. hehe! These are well worth the $12 we spent. If your child likes dinosaurs he or she will absolutely love these!

These Augmented Reality (AR) dinosaur cards are absolutely awesome. A couple of the reviews said they didn't work well or were difficult to use. It's possible they've improved the app since then, but I found them very easy to use and very reliable. The quality of the models and animations is very high, arguably just a notch or two below Jurassic Park movie quality. The app downloads for free in just a few minutes. The cards come with a serial number to unlock the app, which can be loaded onto a total of three devices. I tested it on an iPhone SE and an iPhone X. If the time comes to get a new device, you can unregister the serial number from the old device and transfer it to the new one. The pack of cards contains 20 prehistoric creatures (not all of them are technically dinosaurs), with the exact list included in the attached photos. All the popular dinos are there, with the exception of Stegosaurus. Once the smartphone (or iPad) camera focuses on the name printed on the card, the creature magically appears on top of the card. I found it works best to lay the card down on a stationary surface, such as a desktop, but the phone can be handheld without any problems. Moving the phone around changes your view of the creature accordingly, and you can also scale it up by touching your thumb and forefinger to the screen. I discovered you can activate multiple creatures simultaneously by carefully arranging the cards so that they're all in focus. Once brought to life, each creature fidgets and moves, in addition to having one or two "actions" which you can activate, such as roaring, walking in place, rearing up on its hind legs, flapping its wings, etc. There's also a "fun fact" which you can bring up on the screen. In addition, the T. rex, Giganotosaurus, Brachiosaurus, and Triceratops have two extra modes - Skeleton and Drive. Skeleton toggles the skin and muscles off to reveal just the dinosaur's skeleton going through the motions. Drive mode allows you to make the dino walk in a specified direction, so you can make it leave its card and amble around your desktop. Independent of the cards, the app also comes with Virtual Reality scenes featuring five of the creatures. To be honest, it's a half-hearted effort, with the forest backgrounds being blurry and only the creatures themselves being in sharp focus. The sensor limitations of the smartphone also limit the effectiveness of the virtual reality - you can't, for example, move from one side of the animal to the other; sitting in a swivel chair and tilting your head up and down are the only perspective changes each scene can accommodate. If you don't already own a smartphone virtual reality headset, it's not worth purchasing one just for this. Having said that, my favorite VR scenes were the ones with Triceratops and Giganotosaurus. There's also a combination AR/VR mode which splits the AR card effect into two images, to be used with a virtual reality headset. Here, though, the VR headset has to be one which doesn't block the phone's camera. Since the camera only has one lens, there's no 3D effect - I believe the point is to be able to view the cards and change your viewing perspective "hands-free". There's also a "Holo Mode" which shows the animal simultaneously from the front, back, and both sides. It's meant to be used in conjunction with a device called a HoloPrism, which must be purchased separately. If you plan on showing the dinosaurs to several people at once gathered around the table, this will prove useful. Finally, the app includes a library of the same 20 creatures, with additional information about each, separated into pre-school and 1st-3rd grade learning levels. Also included is a visual size comparison of each animal to an adult human. This last element is fascinating in itself, driving home how big some of these dinos really were.
