The development and creation of an augmented reality application for android devices.
The aim of my project was to produce an Augmented Reality app for android phones and tablets. The app would enable users to draw or create graffiti styled imagery in an AR setting.
I wanted to utilise AR to create an interactive and immersive experience for users featuring both marker and markerless techniques. Using the marker option in the app allows a user to view an image that will display a 3D object on screen that can be interacted with and using the markerless option allows a user to position a 3D object on screen wherever they want.
The main goal of the app was to create a drawing tool that endows users with the feeling of using a physical item. This took the form of a painting tool that can be used to create graffiti styled art that can be created when viewing a marker.
It is my ambition to expand upon the markerless techniques and drawing tools to build a more impressive set of features for the app. This will allow it to be used for more than just graffiti art and possibly as a platform for AR creative endeavours that span multiple disciplines.
