An augmented reality application for smart campus urbanization: MSKU campus prototype

Abstract

Augmented Reality applications are used in almost every area of our lives. These applications have been started to use in the town planning and smart city applications. In this study, a prototype application was developed using this technology. As a smart city/smart campus application, Mugla Sitki Kogman University Campus application will be made. The aim of this study is to adapt some of the smart city features to a campus. In addition, this study is an attempt to generate a visual aid for the smart campus concept. An augmented reality prototype is developed for the MSKU campus. Image detection methods are used to detect the places. External data sources including Twitter data will be used to get information about the detected places and presented on the screen. Methods, design, and findings are discussed.
