First App released #Engineers'_Day

I was overwhelmed with joy on the release of my first application. This was indeed the sweetest fruit for the hardships of the past three weeks. This is explicitly a contribution to our college and our first year folks. We exhibited our app in the “4th Open House Exhibition on Science & Technology” which was held on 10th September 2016 at our college. The jury panel had many experts from giant MNCs. I was proud to be a part of the contest and was glad to display under ‘projects’ category, since only the most talented ones exhibit effective projects.

In this new journey I learnt how “Unity 3D and Vuforia” works and a little bit of coding was also done. I also learnt how to give WLAN connectivity in the best practical manner which is often only discussed as theories.

More than the technical stuffs I learnt how to be a team player and how to sacrifice certain things for the welfare of the team. In this team I mainly tried to organise events and scheduled the timings to keep the project on track. We did succeed in finishing the app at the right time and we tested it for bugs and resolved them too. Finally, we concluded that the online app worked more efficiently than the offline app, so we prefer to move on with the online app for implementation in the college.

Overall outcomes:-

  • ·         Versatile knowledge about Augmented Reality
  • ·         Coding for AR
  • ·         Teamwork

My First App#to_be_launched_soon

As a next step towards learning "Augmented Reality", I along with a crew of three members have initiated to develop an AR app. This AR app is mainly used to cater the students with loads of enthusiasm and wide knowledge gain. In this app we are mainly focusing the Physics and Chemistry laboratories of our college so that our Freshers will find 'Engineering'  interesting. We are aiming to develop for an online as well as an offline app in order to make the storage easier and ease of access through Wireless LAN connectivity.

The highlight of our application is that students can get a good idea about the experiments and they would feel easy to ace the exam as well as the practical knowledge about the subject is broadened.
