Selected Assignment 2-Designing Happy Accidents
I was going to create the AR using unity, because in Artivive, the trigger image will be a specific image instead of a random square that I wish to be. Therefore I follow the tutorial to install Unity in my laptop and add the trigger images (different squares) with the coding it offer. However it said it required Mac to progress the testing on iphone, and I have only windows laptop. I tried the could building which might do without using Mac, but there still got issue with it and couldn't go further more. The important thing is the plugin .NET for Unity should download x86 instead of x64, which I finally deal with the errors coming out.
I will try to use other AR software such as 8th Wall ARWeb which my classmate has showcased in the previous lecture.
Here is my first attempt, tapping on the screen to grow out the flower! The flower was make in blender by watching tutorial online. However, my wish is to catch a trigger image (a square) in real world and it will open like a gift with a lucky item of your day coming out. Or even just tapping on the screen but I want to have random outcome (gifts). It seems like not going to work on 8thwall.app unless I bought their Pro plan.
