Augmented reality (AR) is the real-time use of information in the form of text, graphics, audio and other virtual enhancements integrated with real-world objects. It is this "real world" element that differentiates AR from virtual reality. AR integrates and adds value to the user's interaction with the real world, versus a simulation.
The Public Petition dated 11-11-1839 initiated the establishment of Madras University. It was in January 1840 with Mr.George Norton as its President, that the University Board was constituted. In 1854 after a lapse of 14 years, the Government of India formulated a systematic educational policy for India and as a sequel to this on 5th September 1857 by an Act of Legislative Council of India, the University was established. The University was organised in the model of London University.
Madras University is the mother of almost all the old Universities of south India. The University area of jurisdiction has been confined to three districts of Tamil Nadu in recent years. This is consequent to establishment of various universities in the State and demarcation of the University territories. This University has been growing from strength to strength while widening its teaching and research activities.
In this project, the entire 3D models were created by Revit Autodesk and the ETL was used to convert the Revit file format to the Unity Supports .fbx file format. Through Unity3D the AR app was created for Android devices, using this app anyone can able to view the entire UNOM Guindy campus in the mode of AR by simply installing the below given .apk on their Android device.
- Android Device that supports the AR with Android 7.0 or above.
-
After installing the app, open and give the Camera access for the first time.
-
Point the camera to the flat surface and wait for the app to detect the surface.
-
Once the app shows the surface maker, tap the marker to place the AR model.
-
Users can enlarge the model by pinching and swapping the two fingers on the model.
-
Users can rotate the model by swapping the two fingers in a particular direction on the model.
-
Users can move the model by holding and swapping a single finger on the model to the new surface.
