Mobile Application for Product Showcase using AR

Abstract

There was a time when we had to go to a house or believe the estate seller who can tell false things about the estate but the days are gone when we had to go to the shop and see the products and imagine about its compatibility in our homes. In this paper we describe an application which uses the concept of Augmented Reality which is multi platform compatible, is a real world application which uses augmented reality to display a 3D version of the products so that users can view all the smallest of details of the products on their Mobile Devices and place them according to their desire. This application can be developed in the real world. Here, an application is developed which is having voice-controlled functionalities for the AR Objects. The application’s creation consists of two steps i.e. Creation of 3D Models from real objects using an image based modeling tool and Conversion of 3D Model into an interactive AR element using an AR authoring tool. Our application uses augmented reality to display a 3D version of the products so that users can view all the smallest of details of the products on their Mobile Devices and place them according to their desire. The application can also be used by voice control for several functionalities like opening, closing the roof, to switch to night time, etc. With this cross platform application, people can see the 3D Model of a house with the angles of user’s interest and also with a first person view.
