Developing an Image-Based Augmented Reality System for Meteo AR

Recorded Talk

In this project, an Image-Based Augmented Reality System for Meteo AR was implemented. This Image-Based Augmented Reality System replaced the pre-existing deprecated Marker-Based Augmented Reality System. This change kept Meteo AR on the app store and also marginally improved the performance. In addition, the design of the images has become more flexible as there is no longer a requirement to keep a QR code style margin around the image.  At the end of the project, all of the interface and functionalities of the original Meteo AR app was kept and the editor was upgraded from Unity 5.6 to Unity 2019.
