This assignment only contained a few steps, however these steps for some reason, still took a huge amount of time. For example, eventhough a model is exported from an origin in the 3D modeling tool, for some reason Build AR still puts it off the charts somewhere off your screen.
The second issue was units. For some reason units always come out screwed up in Build AR, regardless of your export settings. I exported separate parts from a single model, and yet Build AR interpreted them as completely different scales. So that took a bit of tweaking as well.
So after all the tweaking and fiddling the scene finally came together as follows.
Windowed Wall
For this model I utilised the symbol that represents light. As this wall is the natural light source for the room, so it was only appropriate to label it as such.
The Audio Equipment
This wall is where the sound equipment for the room is situated and naturally the symbol used for this was an element giving off sound waves.
The Room Structure
This model was the main frame of the room, which included the main seat of the room from where the inhabitant would be situated while interacting with the room. As a main point of interaction being the seat, I used the side view of a gaming seat as the symbol for the part of the room.
Completed Gaming Room
As one can see in the above picture this is the complete room. The elements are slightly offset, but the UI of Build AR is so sensitive that adjusting these tiny differences are near impossible, unless using the coordinate inputs.
The complete AR construction consists of three markers, with three separate 3D models. Combined they create separate major sections of a room that is designed, and solely dedicated to media and entertainment. I thought this was appropriate as the theme of this assignment is AR.
