Exploring Prehistoric Life with Merge Object Viewer
When students open these collections, they’ll encounter lifelike models of some of the most iconic species to ever walk the Earth.
Dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals have always captured the imagination of learners, young and old. Their massive size, mysterious extinction, and fossilized remains continue to make them a favorite topic in homes and in classrooms around the world. But what if students could go beyond book illustrations and actually hold a dinosaur in their hand or place it in their room?
With all the dinosaur-themed collections in the Merge EDU app, Merge Object Viewer, that dream can become a reality! Through AR on the Merge Cube, students can interact with detailed 3D models of these prehistoric creatures—turning science lessons into hands-on experiences.
When students open these collections, they’ll encounter lifelike models of some of the most iconic species to ever walk the Earth. They can rotate a Tyrannosaurus rex to inspect its massive jaws, zoom in on a Triceratops to study its horns and bony frill, or examine the plates of a Stegosaurus and consider how they might have functioned. These experiences aren’t just visually engaging—they help students connect to the scale, biology, and adaptations of each creature in a way pictures never could.
This hands-on approach also offers an excellent entry point for lessons on fossilization, extinction events, and paleontology. What might a Velociraptor have hunted? What modern animals share traits with ancient dinosaurs? Could a Parasaurolophus use its crest for communication? These are the kinds of questions that come to life when students can see and interact with these creatures up close.
