Docking AR
Augmented reality is a revolutionary new development in interactive multimedia design, and employs the camera on a mobile device like a smartphone or tablet. This remarkable innovation provides a wide range of new possibilities, with the capability to introduce a range of virtual elements into the view for setting visualization and visual training that includes the real elements in one's environment. AR allows for applications that are both immersive and effective, with the ability to present spatial concepts, test skills, and facilitate the safe operation of equipment. Both Apple and Android see the value of AR interface technology, and have introduced their AR development platforms, named ARKit and ARCore respectively. Now anyone with a tablet or mobile phone can have access to the latest augmented reality applications.
DDA is the parent company for Augmented RealiTease. As a leader in virtually all forms of digital interactive multimedia design and development, DDA has responded to the advent of ARCore and ARKit by creating Augmented RealiTease, a full-service interactive software developer with a specific focus on the design and development of augmented reality applications. Having completed its first AR project in 2009, Augmented RealiTease has developed a growing number of augmented reality concepts to stir the imagination and to stimulate the potential for new application development.
Docking AR is a boater's tool that helps users to dock their craft accurately and safely.
Need
While boating is a hugely popular pastime, there are common challenges associated with the activity, and a mastery of precise navigation when you're close to the dock is one such example, and a critical one in regards to safety and best practices in marinas and launch sites. Docking AR can use the camera on your mobile phone to lay out a course and place virtual lines on the water. This simple tool can prevent many common bumps and other associated mishaps in close quarters and ensures a safer docking procedure for beginners or others who may be challenged with inclement weather or an otherwise difficult navigation back to port.
Benefit
Docking AR uses AR to maximum advantage, providing a clear path for both novices and skilled navigators. Whether used in a training context for beginners, or offering a simpler and more intuitive method than traditional methods, Docking AR brings AR to the boating community in a way that demonstrates immediate value, with the opportunity to serve as a valuable and convenient tool far into the future.
Concept
While augmented reality is highly useful for mobile devices, such as the smartphone and tablet, this application will be available with a hands-free option for maximum effect. Augmented reality places you into an informational landscape, with graphic features that range from objects and avatars rendered with lifelike accuracy, to floating text that sits directly into your unique camera viewpoint, to diagrammatic graphics like arrows and indicators that take you where you want to go. The text, combined with audio prompts, can deliver real-time information. Additional pertinent information, such as alerts on changes to traffic on your route or weather updates for your local area and any others your route passes through, can be fed from online sources and presented in real time as well.
Augmented RealiTease's exclusive focus on the design and development of augmented reality applications makes them an ideal choice for new and innovative AR projects. A highly skilled team of professional designers, programmers, and multimedia specialists is prepared to take on any challenge, with the capability to complete all aspects of a project in house, without resorting to third party subcontractors.
