Inspiration
After watching several documentaries on climate change and human pollution I realized that while most of us know that it is happening, most of us do not realize to what extent.
What it does
This augmented reality app showcases how a specific rainforest has evolved in the past 10 years in an AR form. It also allows the user to learn more about the rainforest's history while having a fully interactive experience.
How we built it
This was built using css, HTML, javascript, unity engine, and vuforia. I also adapted the AR visuals in photoshop.
Challenges we ran into
As a solo participant who did not have any previous experience with AR, learning about it was definitely a challenge.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Learning how to use Unity Engine and being able to see the AR actually work!!!
What we learned
I learned so much about 2D and 3D mechanisms and how they differ when it comes to AR.
What's next for naturAR
I would love to expand into further ecosystems and also add the possibility of seeing what said ecosystems would look like in the future according to current predictions. I would also love to make it even more interactive by allowing the user to change different aspects such as CO2 emissions to see how it would impact the ecosystem.
