The students and the employees of the Institute of Computer Science of the Faculty of Science in cooperation with the creative technological studio MATSUKO introduced penguins in an extended reality at the Botanical Garden of the Pavol Jozef \u0160af\u00e1rik University in Ko\u0161ice. The visitor looks at the canvas, where he can see his own image and the penguin models that move around. The sensor locates the position of the people and the penguins adapt their behaviour based on that. They hit the visitor\u2019s foot, hide, walk around and slide on their stomach. The students also have opportunities to improve the layout. They can add further interesting penguin interactions or other objects.<\/p>\n
