Desert X iOS AR app
Education & Discovery
Taught myself the basics of using XCode and iOS ARToolkit3D & Design
Sketching, wireframing, user-flow definition & high-fidelity UI design, 3D modeling and animation.Development
Produced a working build of the iOS app.The goal of this project was to challenge myself and learn a new skill related to product design and development. I chose to create an augmented reality app that uses real-world GPS coordinates in connection with 3D models & animation I created to display virtual "installations" based on the user's location.
This was in connection with the Desert X, the non-profit international art exhibit in the California desert.
I spent weeks learning XCode from scratch, and incorporated 3D models I created and animated into the AR experience. It was a long process, with lots of trial-&-error, but ultimately I eneded up with a working build of the app. I was happy to be able to challenge myself and try something completely new, and delivery a working final product.
