Within Rolls Out New Augmented Reality Story

Los Angeles-based Within, a venture-backed startup which is developing augmented reality software, said this week that it has relased another, augmented reality title on its app, Wonderscope. According to Within--which is backed by venture investors, including Andreessen Horowitz, Temasek, Emerson Collective, 21st Century Fox, WPP, Raine Ventures, WME, Live Nation, Vice Media, Tribeca Enterprises, Annapurna Pictures, and Legendary Pictures--its new title, Clio's Cosmic Quest, is an augmented reality reading adventure which sends kids into space. The title has children reading parts of the story out loud, as they participate in an interactive, augmented-reality story. The story focuses on learning about the solar system, supernovas, nebulas, and more. Within is led by co-founder and CEO Chris Milk.
