This project was an opportunity to fill the gap between academics and company expectations. It gaves me the opportunity to implement my academic knowledge in a business environment. The goal was to develop an augmented reality application to improve the cultural experience of the users. I have been able to take advantage of my double master’s degree: engineer in imaging modeling & computing, and management of innovative projects.
Today, the presence of media libraries in the digital world is only made through their websites and their online catalogs. These tools only show us the documents that can be found in the library space, but the location of these documents in the library is indicated by a rating system that is relatively difficult to understand by users.
The application could be a media library extension and it offers a dematerialized space, accessible 24 hours a day. This innovative project aims to create semantic and thematic bridges between physical spaces and virtual contents, using the possibilities of augmented reality and indoor geolocation. The use of spatial guidance and mapping tools will offer users a new experience of the place.
What we used :
Project Summary
Discovery and Use of the Vuforia SDK:
- Use of Vuforia app
- Creation of area targets using LIDAR Technolgy
- Using the data in Unity
- Use of Targets
- Development of features in Unity using C#
Geolocation Testing:
- Testing the effectiveness of Vuforia’s 3D calibration
- Positioning GameObjects in the environment
- Achieving identical positioning between the Unity scene and the real world.
Setting up Pathfinding:
- Pathfinding is an element of artificial intelligence that involves calculating the shortest path in an environment from point A to point B, taking into account various constraints.
- Adding guidance modes and developing in C#

Object Occlusion:
- The object occultation refers to the phenomenon where one object is blocked or hidden from view by another object. In general, occultation occurs when the line of sight between an observer and an object is obstructed by another object, causing the first object to be hidden from view.
- Developing in C#
Project Management:
- Hybrid role: between the client and the engineers
- Involved in organization aspects
- Managing a team of 2+ people
- Develop technical and design prototypes
- Implement a roadmap
- Collaborating with graphic designe
- Implementing the visual identity (Logo, Typo…)
Using Design Thinking Methods:
- Double diamond method
