AR for Architects
This workshop will begin by introducing concepts of XR in the architecture field through practical and experimental examples. Building upon these concepts, participants will learn beginner skills for implementing marker-based Augmented Reality using their webcam and the Unity Game Engine. Participants will be able to build their own augmented reality overlay of an architectural model using a 2D image (either printed or displayed on their phone) as a trigger. Participants will be able to import their own 3D models into their AR experience and share them with the instructors and their classmates as demonstrations. By the end of this course, participants will have developed an understanding of the possibilities of AR for architecture and will have the resources and knowledge to further develop their skills to create custom AR experiences. 6 AIA LUs
