Gamified AR Educational Platform built on Unity

An innovative Unity-based augmented reality application that brings NCERT books to life. Using images from NCERT textbooks as markers, this app spawns interactive 3D models or prefabs, allowing students to learn concepts in a more engaging and immersive way.

🎯 Features

• Image Tracking: Detect and track specific pages or diagrams in NCERT books using ARFoundation.
• Prefab Interaction: Spawn 3D models, animations, or interactive elements mapped to the detected images.
• Gamification: Get XP for each Easter Egg found, along with maintaining a collection of the ones found.
• Enhanced Learning: Add an engaging AR layer to subjects like science, geography, and more.

🛠️ Tech Stack

• Unity: The core engine used to develop the app.
• C#: Backend Scripting.
• Blender: 3D Models.
• ARFoundation: For cross-platform AR development (compatible with ARKit and ARCore).
