Voyage AR - HMS Caroline

Voyage AR - HMS Caroline was a community driven project, funded by Hub-In and Belfast City Council, designed to encourage footfall on the Maritime Mile in Belfast. The Project was an Augmented Reality app that formed a scavenger hunt, leading from 'The Big Fish', down the the HMS Caroline. There was also a section of the app that allowed users to place photo-scanned artefacts from the museum in their home using Augmented Reality.
I was the project lead, engaging with community groups to ensure what we were building actually engaged with local stories and and served the interests of locals.
I also built the web based Augmented Reality portions of the experience using Niantic's 8th Wall and was responsible for photo-scanning the museum artefacts included in the app.
