A Location-Triggered Augmented Reality Walking Tour Using Snap Spectacles 2021

Abstract

We present an on-site 3D-animated audiovisual tour guide augmented reality application developed for Snap Spectacles 2021. The primary goal of this project is to explore how to use this experimental product to create an augmented reality tour guide. In addition, we present the design considerations for the user interface and the underlying system architecture. We illustrate the workflow of the tour application and discuss our experience working with Spectacles 2021 and its experimental API. We also present our design choices and directions for future work.
