This project explores the potential benefits of using Augmented Reality (AR) technology in education, particularly in enhancing visual learning. With the increasing use of electronic devices by students, AR technology presents an opportunity to leverage this technology to improve the learning process. The review highlights that visual learning is effective for all age groups. AR technology has been widely used for educational purposes, but previous projects have been limited in their functionality. This project seeks to address these limitations by developing an AR application that allows users to customize 3D models for educational purposes. The application uses AR tracking technology, Unity game development software, and tailored lecture slide problems to offer more comprehensive and memorable explanations using visuals.
