Vuforia Augmented Reality Apps With Unity3D

Learn the basics fundamentals and programming techniques required for building fully functional Augmented Reality Apps.

So what is Augmented Reality?

Augmented reality (AR) is a live direct or indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are "augmented" by computer-generated or extracted real-world sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data.

In Augmented Reallity the real view is modified by a computer (Smartphone in this case). Augmented reality enhances one’s current perception of reality, whereas in contrast, virtual reality replaces the real world with a simulated one. Augmentation techniques are basically performed in real time,

Power of Augmented Reality

I came across Augmented Reality in 2015 after watching a video of Animal Models on augmented on an image. I was fascinated to know that such technology actually exists. So I started researching on different Augmented Reality platform. Vuforia platform seemed very promising as developers all over the World have used Vuforia for developing Augmented Reality apps.

I learned Vuforia and after that started freelancing on augmented reality services. It literally gave an upward push to my freelancing career there and then. It still has a lot of potential in the IT services market. I worked for a few years providing these services where I built a lot of augmented reality applications for clients in USA, UK and many other countries. These included interactive explained apps, live magazines, construction animations in AR and many more.
