LECTURE
Week 1
In Week I we are introduced in experiential design. During the classes we watched some of the senior's work. Mr Razif also give us some advice and ideas for our following task.
Imagine the scenario in either of the two places. What would the AR experience be and what extend visualization can be useful? What do you want the user to feel?
In this activity I imagine I was in a gym.I would like to use the mobile A.R to help me know how to use the fitness equipment by scanning the equipment and it will pop up the details and instructional video. This will help the user have a better gym experience and reduce the difficulty of getting started in the gym.
Unity Introduction
Scene is the place to build, Game is the preview.
Platform can be switch at the build setting.
During the activity we were asked to create a Vuforia Engine account and we need to add the license key to access.
After adding the Vuforia Engine we can add any picture that we want as the image target. We can access the database in Unity after this.
Image target is the parents object, add a cube and drag it under the image target and it will become the child object of the image target.
Fig 2.1 & 2.2 AR test.
After this we can adding a video with the same process.

Switch Scene By Clicking the Button
In this activity we need to create buttons that can link to others scene .So we can switch the scene by clicking the button while using the application.
1) Create new scene, add buttons on the canvas and change the word.
2) Create a new folder and name it as script
3) Add c#Script change the file name into Scene 1

4) After finish the coding, click on the button. Click the no function bar and change it to change scene Move to scene

Fig 2.6 Result
We can let the cube turning and move up and down by adding the animation
Process:
1) Press the record button
2) Move the cube a bit to create the starting keyframe
3) Add another keyframe at the time u want, move up the cube

-Click the Run Device and choose the device.
- Click the Player settings

Project 1 : Final Project Proposal
Before we come out with the proposal we need to explore the AR trending now a day.

Reflection
These exercise is new and complicate for me. This is my first time learning coding and Unity even most of the coding are the simple coding. I feel hard to catch up during the classes. I need go through the tutorials video again at home to complete the exercise. However the whole learning process is interesting. It gain a lot of knowledge about AR for me. It is a good try for me to create AR feature during these exercise。
