Augmented reality (AR)
Augmented reality (AR) is a technology
that superimposes computer-generated elements over a user’s view of the
environment. The potential of augmented
reality in education is also justified with the ability to provide an adequate
level of realism, in which individuals are not disconnected entirely from the
real environment. Augmented reality can be adopted as an additional learning
platform for students to visualise things as part of the learning process more
effectively, leading to the creation of a more intuitive learning experience
which can boost their level of understanding.
In this work, students have to develop an
augmented reality application that can be used on student mobile devices to aid
in the teaching and learning in any of these subjects:
1. EMM3806 Mech Eng Lab 1
2. EMM3808 Mech Eng Lab 2
3. EMM3810 Mech Eng Lab 3
4. EMM3812 Mech Eng Lab 4
5. EMM3814 Mech Eng Lab 5
6. EMM3507 Eng Design 1
7. EMM3509 Eng Design 2
8. EMM4947 Mech. Eng. Design
Project
(choose any subject in general,
then decide on the components to be converted in AR environment)
The objectives of this study are:
1. to evaluate the efficacy of an
augmented reality application designed to create an active learning experience
and demonstrate the significance knowledge.
2. to analyses whether the nature
of augmented reality is capable of complementing the overall learning
experience of the students in terms of better visualisation, and provide a
context for incorporating augmented reality application in the curriculum of
studies.
Software Development Tools
Below are suggestion list of tools
and platforms that can be used to develop the augmented reality application:
1. Vuforia Augmented Reality
Software Development Kit (SDK)
2. Unity3D Game Engine
3. Blender
