Augmented reality (AR) has the potential to be a versatile tool for education enrichment. We have constructed an AR table to supplement traditional chemical engineering laboratory education. This AR table uses computer vision software to simulate a chemical reactor plant, building student intuition in a hands-on way that cannot be replicated with a "real-life" lab experience.
