Week 4 : Build AR Captures

These are some test models I've imported into BuildAR, and I'm thoroughly impressed with its power and dynamics. I can't wait to finish this off :)



Week 4 : Reflection

Honestly, I'm amazed at what I've been able to do with this software, and given a slight nudge in the right direction. The development of my creatures, buildings and environments added with sketches and concept art (which are influenced by my architects) have blown me away to the degree of evolution possible in such a short span of time. I never thought We would be able to create such dynamic works of architecture, but adding the BuildAR program to 3DS MAX models is astonishing, how we can quite literally 'virtually' have our models in our hands. The potential of this program for both our own further knowledge and architectural prospects is paramount, and I'm blown away to be part of this assignment. I can honestly say I've explored some pretty interesting concepts, both architectural and otherwise, and I've learnt so much.



Week 4 : Marker Development

This is a cool concept and I hope I can further this design for my Build AR Marker Box.

I wanted to capture my city environment silhouettes as the markers, as it reflects a very iconic view of a city through its cityscape. This is just a draft and will probably change as I further develop them but this is just a draft.

Week 4: Example of Augmented Reality

This is an awesome example of AR that I found back in 2009. It shows the renewable energy source from an energy company, with two different scenarios; one being wind power (where blowing into the mike animates the wind turbines) and I think a solar panel field? Not sure. Either way, you have to check this out, its amazing for almost 3 years ago. :)
