Pop-up and movable books captivate with their interactive artistry, yet their fragility limits access—especially in archival collections like the KB. Through an innovative collaboration between KB and TU Delft’s XR Zone, researcher Willemijn Elkhuizen explores how mixed reality (XR) can preserve and transform these delicate treasures. By translating the sensory and emotional qualities of pop-up books into digital and hybrid experiences, the project opens new avenues for engaging and safeguarding cultural heritage.

The Radioactivity project uses VR to make learning safe and immersive, letting students explore radiation through realistic experiments while teachers guide remotely. By overcoming safety limits and instructor shortages, this innovative VR app democratizes access to hands-on science, transforming how students experience and understand radioactivity across classrooms everywhere.

The XRScaleKit is a growing toolkit designed to make XR development more scalable. Originating from projects addressing network and management challenges, it brings together years of innovation to streamline XR workflows and support large-scale educational applications.
