Inspiration
- When we bought a car, I struggled to know more about my car and the only way to learn more about it was Manual Book which we receive along with car or Online resources. During which I faced a lot of difficulties. That's why I decided to build an AR-based manual for Car.
What it does
- The Solution can be used anywhere where there is a use of a manual.
- All the applications which need a manual for simple repair can be replaced by this kind of app.
How I built it
- Taken multiple Images of Car and uploaded them to Vuforia Engine and selected the better one's that have high tracking performance
- Build the whole project in Unity using echoAR and Vuforia
Challenges I ran into
- As we don’t share mechanical background recognition of the parts itself was a tedious task for us.
- Then detection of the parts by the APP was a big challenge.
What I learned
- Combining echoAR and Vuforia
- Learned some basics of different parts of Car
What's next for AR in Automobile
- We will try to enter as many parts we can and provide a basic servicing tip to it.
Solution Description
- We are trying to develop an AR-based Application which can tell the user which part he is looking at and can do the basic servicing of it
- It is giving visual cues so even illiterate people can also use it
- In short, it will be Augmented Reality based manual for Car
Uniqueness of the idea
- No costly hardware required.
- Easy to use and highly interactive.
- Navigation and searching of parts is easy
- Even an illiterate person can use the App.
