Vuforia is a software platform developed by Qualcomm® which enables developers to integrate image recognition-based augmented reality (AR) in their mobile applications. Our task was to design and implement an application that demonstrates the features of Vuforia and potential uses of AR. We developed an Android application that enables users to choose furniture from a physical catalog using Vuforia’s cloud target image recognition, place and manipulate a 3D model in their environment using AR, and take and share photos of their arrangement with the user’s social network.
