Labs: Using AR to learn 14 decimals of pi
The most commonly used citation of memory capacity states that our short term memory has a limit of 7 ± 2 items, but later research has shown that 4 ± 1 is a more realistic number. Despite this, we wanted to be able to see whether it is possible to learn 14 decimals of pi in five minutes. To assist our mission we use the same memory techniques as the memory masters do, and of course, add AR to assist our learning process even further.
