Role

Project Designer:

• Made all the models and props and menus in blender.
• Edited the food objects in blender to remove bad pixels.
• Designed UI in Unity.

Project Developer:

• Scripted the foundation for AR so that the menu can be placed in an AR environment on a table etc.
• Scripted interaction with the finger and the menu objects.
• Scripted the price and name for the items.
• Scripted a manager that controls adding food to the cart and calculating the price.
• Scripted with ScriptableObjects that handles the adding them to cart and prices to show a total price.
• Scripted a toggle handler so that I can switch from being in 3D to AR and vice versa.
• Scripted a QR tracking manager, if scanned you can choose to scan a discount code to reduce the total price.
• Scripted the selection of menu list so that only one is showing per interaction.
• Scripted so that the menu page can be turned if there is more pages of menu items in the future.

Project Type:

• Augmented Reality Restaurant application.

Instructions:

This is a complete prototype of a restaurant app where the food resembles the real world food in an AR environment to make the user feel hungry or decide what he wants to eat with visual feedback.

Many people going into a restaurant can’t decide what to eat or know what they want, especially if the restaurant don’t have any pictures. This app should make it easier for them to decide because it takes it to the next level of immersive where they see the food prior to ordering.

Future Functions:

Connect to swish API and bankcard/google pay so that people can take real orders directly from the app.

Develop the application design and better UI as well as the Photogrammetry objects.

Special Note:

My best quality is to write scripts and be a game developer or any project developer. I am not artistic, so you might find the UI, design and any designer related thing to be ‘bad looking’. But the purpose for this project was to create it from scratch by myself without any framework or anything, to practice my knowledge, I applied everything myself to the best of my ability.
