VIA XR TEAM

 Week 41 Having the main idea of the project defined, we started the second week of development organizing the tasks in our group. We all took some tutorials on how ARCore works to get a main idea and functions that might be useful. Later on we started working with interfaces, canvas and buttons and we struggled with their size and interaction. So our main idea was to have an interface in front of what the user is watching (that in this case will be the video comming from the camera) that allows them to select between diferent colors to change the colour of the wall.                                                  First version of the interface An out of scope feature that we could implement is to improve the interface offering the user the possibility to select from the whole color palette like pantones...

Week 40  The second project of the mixed reality course aims to develop an educational application with Augmented Reality, with some different tools that allow us to discover the wide range of possibilities that this technology has to offer. This time we will work with ARCore and ARKit. Those tools provide us with better methods for  localization and mapping purposes.  ARKit fares better in reliable tracking and ARCore leads in mapping and reliable recovery. Besides that it  provides the developers with some usefull libraries regarding the use and treatment of color temperature and intensity .  Like any development process of a technological product we started brainstorming some of the ideas that we thought would be nice to implement as a project with educational purposes. The first idea was to show the skelleton of a person with labeled bones but we thought it was kind of classic and basic idea that has been implemented many times and it has not much logic behi...
