This project involves the creation of a functional Augmented Reality (AR) measurement tool capable of accurately calculating real-world distances and dimensions using a smartphone or AR-enabled tablet. Upon completion, you will have developed a standalone AR application that can detect surfaces, place virtual measurement points, and display calculated distances in real-time. This tangible outcome demonstrates practical proficiency in AR development, spatial computing, and user interface design within a mobile context. It showcases the ability to translate real-world physical space into a digital, interactive environment, providing a visible, usable tool.
This project is ideal for individuals who are driven by concrete application, enjoy problem-solving in a visual and interactive medium, and are motivated by seeing their code directly manipulate and augment the physical world.
