Scale models and model kits can be very expensive, but with AR technology, you can now enjoy sophisticated spaceships at an affordable price whenever you want, wherever you want. These AR spaceships are a lot of fun for kids, adults, among friends, with the family, and just a unique experience for everyone.
Created and developed by Pierre Drolet, an Emmy Award and Visual Effects Society-winning CGI artist who has been in the Hollywood film and tv industry for 20 years now — GOarSPACE is his personal project which he has put so much passion and hard work on. From the stunning promotional video down to the details of each of the spaceships, this is a labor of love from him as he wanted to give the best resolution and for the ships to look as photo realistic as possible.
FIVE COLLECTIBLE SPACESHIPS
USS JEFFERIES - named after Walter Matthew Jefferies, the designer of the iconic spaceship Enterprise from the original COPERNICUS - named after Nicolaus Copernicus, the Father of Modern Astronomy.
