AR Popup Storybook Companion App
This project aims to create a whole new generation of readers! This app or website creates virtual popup books in the form of an AR app. The app is meant to be a companion to physical books, but can also be used with public domain stories (built-in). Eventually, the app/website could be used as a platform to host AR experiences for hundreds of popular children's books (and a heck of a lot cheaper than popups).
Objectives
The deliverable will be an AR app coupled with simple content to make the experience of reading a storybook come alive.
Requirements:
>>scan a QR code OR recognize a book cover to choose AR experience
>>AR cover scene invites readers in
>>add AR page turn buttons or recognize a new page or scan a QR code to turn page
>>display animated AR content that hovers over the pages of the book.
Stretch Goals:
>>Add text to speech narration
>>Add multiple books
>>Add ability to extend the system using cloud-hosted content
Motivations
Let's be honest. Kids are on their computers, consoles, and phones a lot more than they read these days. Let's reverse this trend a bit!
