One of the most exciting uses for augmented reality is to display AI characters into the real world. I was challenged to use the knowledge I have gained in the field of AR to produce a prototype that would place a life-size 3D character into the real world.
I’m very proud of my completion of the augmented reality fuse box challenge project. This was a very exciting course in which I learned how to program A/R image target recognition applications without an external third party engine. Using only Unity built-in functionality I was able to define an image target and spawn a 3D object onto that target through the user’s camera.

These days most folks are familiar with facial tracking and recognition technology. It has become quite commonplace to have the camera track your face while in a zoom meeting. Who hasn’t been able to resist adding cat ears or a king’s crown to your video feed while the boss drones away during a meeting?

Artificial intelligence: more commonly known as AI. It’s a hot topic these days and there are many wild rumors going around of what AI can actually do. To help clear up the questions about this topic I’ve compiled a list of some of my favorite AI resources for artists and creators. Using these tools you can do so many things. From writing a letter to creating and generating unique artwork. Even music and animations are able to be generated using AI.

A space maid is a person who works as a maid in a space station, a spaceship, or a planet. A space maid wears a uniform that is similar to a traditional maid outfit, but with some modifications to suit the environment and the tasks. For example, a space maid may wear a helmet, a jetpack, or a spacesuit, depending on the situation. A space maid may also have some cybernetic enhancements or gadgets to help with cleaning, cooking, or fighting.

In this challenge I was required to put my User Interface skills to the test with this whack-a-mole-like challenge. The project scope is a game in which you have to get all the food that pops up on a grid while avoiding the skulls.

In this Unit, I programmed a game to test the player’s reflexes, where the goal is to click and destroy objects randomly tossed in the air before they can fall off the screen. In creating this prototype, I learned how to implement a User Interface – or UI – into my projects. I added a title screen with a difficulty select menu that allows the user to control how challenging the gameplay is. In addition, I added a score display that will track how many points the player has earned, and a Game Over screen, which will allow the player to restart and try again.
