Real Life Cowboy

About this app

RealLife Cowboy is the only app that lets you view objects submitted by real cowboys in augmented reality. Learn about significant cowboy-related objects while viewing and listening to stories from the owners in your own environment. You can even interact with the objects by moving them in space.
We all know the most famous cowboys, cowgirls, bounty hunters, and outlaws in popular culture. The Lone Ranger, the Man with No Name, Annie Oakley, and Buffalo Bill are just a few iconic figures of the wild west.
You've probably seen a classic western showdown or standoff on the screen. As a kid, you may have played games of Cowboys and Indians. Perhaps you've eaten at a saloon modeled after the ones in the Old West.
But there's more to the cowboy lifestyle than what's shown in movies, TV shows, and games. In fact, cowboy culture is more often misrepresented in the media than portrayed accurately. In everyday life, cowboys usually aren't represented at all, so people don't know what genuine cowboy culture looks like.
RealLife Cowboy aims to fix that and educate the world about cowboys, the objects that are important to them, and the culture they created.
