Salwa Concept AR

Salwa Concept is an augmented reality application for iPhone and iPad, programmed in Swift (ARCL, ARKit, SceneKit, CoreLocation). It relies on the GPS, compass and accelerometer to place 3D objects on the precise geographical coordinates in the world. Plus and minus buttons are for the manual scaling of the model, arrow up and down buttons are used to increase or decrease the altitude. The purpose of these buttons is for more precise adjustmentment and placement of the bridge in the real world. There is another button for taking of snapshots. The cube button is for switching to a 3D view with a black background. This is only a viewer for the 3D model of the bridge. On that screen there is a button for setting the model in endless rotation, or the user can use the touch gestures to scale, pan and zoom the model. Double-tap gesture can be used to reset the model to the center of the screen. The application also features an image gallery of my renderings for this project, and a gallery of animations that that can be played but that requires an internet connection as the videos are streamed and images downloaded from my web site. One more feature that I added to this app is the PDF viewer which can be used for viewing of the CAD design drawings of this bridge exported to PDF format.
AR is one of the novel visualization tools, and it's gaining on importance every day. Besides the AR applications, I should be able can create VR applications as well, on any platform, which would work with the VR headsets like HTC Vive or with AR headsets like Hololens, but I don't have any of these devices yet. If a company would provide me with the gear, I would be able to program apps for any of these devices, including watches etc.
