Microworld is an interactive app allowing young users to visualise scientific concepts through augmented reality. Developed as a complement to the printed book (published by Planete Sante), the app illustrates and demonstrates bacterial phenomena in a fun, engaging way.

The reading of the printed work is punctuated by 3D animations in augmented reality. The users’ smartphone then turns into a microscope, giving them access to the different types of existing bacteria as well as their behavior in different environments.

Augmented reality has been optimized to work on both old and new smartphones.

In addition to augmented reality animations, the app also offers additional information through technical sheets on bacteria.

UI&UX Design

For Microworld, Transmii took care of the design, interface design (UI&UX) and application development. Throughout the process, our team supported the microbiology experts from the University of Sciences in Geneva to meet their scientific and technical requirements.
