The Marine Book

"The Book of Marine" is a mobile application designed to promote marine conservation messages. It introduces the Omura's whale and the other two local cetaceans in Hong Kong. The main features of the app are as follows:

1. AR mode
Scanning the QR code of the three cetaceans (the Omura's whale, finless porpoise and Chinese white dolphin), you can observe their appearance in a 360 degree view. You can also listen to the cetaceans sing by pressing the "Sound" button. By pressing the "Scan" button and the marks on the cetaceans, you can learn more about the characteristics and functions of their body parts.

2. Quiz mode
Information about cetaceans and marine conservation is introduced in a funny style and Q&A format. Can you answer all the questions?
