EchoField

EchoField is an augmented reality layer that lets visitors see troop movements, artillery positions, and battle phases overlayed on the terrain where they actually occurred—guided by narration, timing, and historically grounded research.

How It Works

Scan. Align. Experience.

EchoField is built to be intuitive for first-time visitors and simple to operate for parks and museums.

  1. Visitors scan a QR code or open EchoField at the battlefield.
  2. A short, guided alignment step ties the AR overlay to the visible terrain.
  3. Troop formations, artillery positions, and movement paths fade into view.
  4. Narrative sequences step through the battle’s key phases, with optional deeper dives for enthusiasts.
Design Principles

Respectful by design.

  • No gore, no depictions of suffering, no shooter gameplay

For Parks & Museums

A modern interpretive layer.

EchoField adds a premium, cinematic experience visitors can access with hardware they already carry.

  • Drive return visits and word-of-mouth
  • Support grant funding and sponsorships
  • Turn static signage into dynamic interpretation

For Teachers & Students

Field trips with context.

EchoField gives teachers a way to show students not just where events happened, but how terrain and timing shaped outcomes.

  • Supports APUSH, Civil War, and local history units
  • Clear, age-appropriate explanations
  • Pre-visit and post-visit framing opportunities
For Schools & Educators
For Enthusiasts

Visualizing tactics.

For those who already know the names and regiments, EchoField helps you see the tactical story unfold over the original ground.

  • Overlay maps onto the real ridges and fields
  • Phase-based timelines and unit positions
  • Context for conflicting historical sources
Technology & Accuracy

Built for the ground truth.

EchoField uses AR Foundation, custom alignment tools, and elevation data to make troop placements and movements feel anchored to the real landscape—not floating above it.

  • USGS-derived DEM elevation data and custom meshes
  • Manual alignment controls for site staff where needed
  • Historian-guided placement of lines, batteries, and landmarks
  • Mobile-first design; no headset hardware required
