Summary: | Campus tour is one of the most exciting moments as well as one of the decision-making processes when students are looking for the right university. During the campus visit, students can grab the opportunities to explore the campus environment while the universities can take the chance to promote their campus. However, the traditional campus visits require visitors to be physically present in the campus. As UTAR Kampar campus is located far away from the city, this poses a great challenge for the visitors to visit the campus physically. In addition, as the campus size is up to 1300 acres, it can be tiring for the visitors to visit every single corner of the university during the campus tour.
The proposed project addresses these problems by developing an android mobile application that can provide the convenience and freedom for the users to visit the UTAR campus virtually. To enhance the user experience, markerless AR technology is chosen to deliver a 3D view of the campus to the users. The 3D models are designed and created through Blender, while the application is developed by using both Unity game engine and Android Studio. This project applied prototyping methodology by making improvements through collecting feedback from the users. The novelty of this project is that there is no existing work done on the markerless AR Tour to UTAR Kampar campus in Android. In a nutshell, this project enables users to explore and enjoy the full view of UTAR Kampar campus without the need of physical travel via augmented reality. |
