Learning Should Be An ADVENTURE
HoloQuest is about the thrill of discovery. XR content should make the impossible accessible to everyone. That’s why our approach to XR creation is grounded in the idea that students can create the future of the metaverse and bring content to your fingerstips. HoloQuest is more than just a set of XR enabled experiences, it is about empowering the architects of the metaverse to build a future you can reach out and explore.

HoloQuest: Space
In the spring of 2022, 12 high school student interns made Space Symposium history when they created a holographic program for space education for the Space Foundation Education Team and were invited to co-present with the Space Foundation educators during the 37th Annual Space Symposium.

HoloQuest: Space Features
The journey towards the stars starts with a single step. Students worked to make space accessible in the classroom by taking models from NASA, the Smithsonian, professional modelers like Albin Merle, and professional assets from KitBash3D to make a holographic space education experience. Here are a few of the features of that experience:
Interactive XR Content
Students are learning how to make buttons, sliders, and other kinds of interactive menus click.
Head Mounted XR
Students are creating holographic and virtual reality experiences for a variety of head mounted devices including the HoloLens 2 and Meta Quest 2.
Space Ships, We Got Those!
In HoloQuest: Space, students have made the Perseverance Rover, Discovery Space Shuttle, and the James Webb Space Telescope interactive.
Science on a Sphere
Students created an extension for Science on a Sphere that lets individuals see 3D immersive content around Saturn and Mars, as well as the orbits of satellites around earth.
Box, What Box?
The phrase “Think outside the Box” has defined a generation, but we challenge our students to imagine there isn’t a box. We encourage them to consider a metaverse that is made with a blank and inclusive slate. Then, they build a new future.
Secret Sauce
Our secret sauce in these experiences isn’t just the cool tech or the amazing ability to interact with realistic space content – it’s the fact that high school student interns are the architects of the future building these experiences for other students.

HoloQuest: History
Bridging the past with the future by empowering students and curators to enhance their community using tools that enable archiving for digital mediums. In 2023, Crafting Heroes student interns at William J. Palmer High School will create the first part of HoloQuest: History by working with the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum on two separate, but connected, projects. In partnership with the curator and staff, students will digitize collection artifacts with a structured light scanner. Students will also use 360 degree, high definition cameras to make virtual tours of exhibits under the guidance of the curator and staff. Students will make a variety of different application types using the Unity game development engine.
