Abstract

A mobile application for video recording of practical works and laboratory experiments was created within the research. The pupils received an opportunity to get acquainted with safety regulations before work performance, as well as with the equipment and reagents, needed for the performance and with the work progress in video form. Images of parts of practical work or a laboratory experiment, based on the platform «Vuforia», implemented in software as objects of augmented reality, having used a multiplatform instrument for two and three dimensional “Unity 3D” apps, were chosen as «markers» of the mobile app.
