Abstract

Augmented Reality is the presentation of objects superimposed on the real world view of the environment. It is an innovative technology that allows multidimensional viewing and understanding of concepts. This paper aims to use this concept of Augmented Reality in the field of Education to create an application that generates 3D models of the images embedded in textual materials using the software Unity and Vuforia. The application uses a smartphone’s camera to scan the embedded image of a textbook, e-book or photocopy and generates a 3D working model with live animations as well as on-click functionalities to view various movements of the model by providing user interaction. This application aims to provide an active learning experience to students.
