Mobile Augmented Reality using Unity 3D

5 days

OVERVIEW

This comprehensive course is designed to provide participants with a thorough understanding and practical skills in developing augmented reality (AR) applications using Unity 3D and Vuforia SDK. Augmented reality, a cutting-edge technology, overlays digital content onto the real-world environment, creating immersive experiences across various industries. Through a structured curriculum, participants will learn the fundamentals of AR development, Unity 3D interface, Vuforia SDK integration, basic Blender and rendering techniques, animation in Unity, AR interaction, and deployment of mobile applications.

PREREQUISITES

Basic understanding of programming concepts, preferably in languages like C#. Familiarity with Unity 3D or other game development platforms would be beneficial but not mandatory. Knowledge of 3D modelling basics would be advantageous for the Blender and rendering section.

AUDIENCE

Aspiring AR developers keen on mastering the art of creating immersive experiences. Software engineers seeking to expand their skill set into the exciting realm of augmented reality development. Students or professionals in fields such as gaming, education, marketing, healthcare, and architecture interested in leveraging AR for innovative solutions. Entrepreneurs aiming to develop AR-based products or services for their businesses.
