The challenge:\u00a0<\/strong>The brief was to \u201cdo something cool\u201d with Augmented Reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The solution: <\/strong>After evaluating a number of different Augmented Reality platforms, I started building experiments in \u2018posters coming to life\u2019 with an initial still frame, being scanned by the Aurasma app, and then turning into the remainder of the video, which would stick to the poster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After several iterations I developed two proof of concepts, one for the Fiesta with a 3D fiesta that would pop up on a postcard, and you could move and rotate the postcard and the car would move. I added a shadow in AR to the car to make it look like it was sitting on the postcard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The other proof of concept was a \u2018wheel change\u2019 Augmented Reality experience, where I set it up in particular dealerships & events, and you could point the Augmented reality app at the wheel, and it would detect the wheel and overlay different alloys on the wheel \u2013 so you could see what the wheels looked like on the actual car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The challenge was to create something impressive with Augmented Reality (AR). I developed multiple proof of concepts: including a 3D Fiesta car that interacted with a postcard, and an AR experience allowing users to visualize different wheel designs on a real car. These AR experiments showcased the potential of immersive and interactive experiences in the automotive industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":243,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"portfolio_category":[6],"portfolio_tag":[],"class_list":["post-241","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_category-ford"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kevingordon.org.uk\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/241","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kevingordon.org.uk\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kevingordon.org.uk\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/portfolio"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kevingordon.org.uk\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kevingordon.org.uk\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=241"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.kevingordon.org.uk\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/241\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":279,"href":"https:\/\/www.kevingordon.org.uk\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/241\/revisions\/279"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kevingordon.org.uk\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/243"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kevingordon.org.uk\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=241"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"portfolio_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kevingordon.org.uk\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_category?post=241"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kevingordon.org.uk\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_tag?post=241"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
