My group and I decided to make panels in places in Seattle and talk about its history so we each picked a neighborhood. I chose South Park and I had to give a tour of its history from a certain place of South park I chose Marra Farm because it has done a lot of help in my neighborhood since I was a kid and it would be a cool concept to make panels talking about the information of Marra Farm and the benefits to caused for South Park.

The process was easy to navigate into making the panels the only cons was when I launched in Eyejack one of the panels did not load until I refreshed the app multiple times.

IKEA PLACE

The IKEA Place app is a neat tool for visualizing how furniture or decor would look in your home. I’ve tried the app in my room, and it’s quite realistic. However, my only cons are with the scaling, it doesn’t allow me to scale down as much as I’d like on my phone. Another downside is that it doesn’t feature all the furniture I’d like to use for AR. On the plus side, the app is super user-friendly, and the 3d model feature is a great addition, letting you see the item in a full 360 view. This app is handy for those who struggle to visualize what furniture might look like in their space, eliminating the need to search for the right pieces constantly!

“A NIGHT IN MADAGASCAR”

The inspiration for my idea struck while I was browsing through the file of animations. As I played around, clicking each character, my love for nature and animals guided me. Seeing the lion sparked a connection to the movie Madagascar, and I wanted to capture the essence of both the film and the setting in my work, creating “A Night in Madagascar.”

I faced a couple of issues. The first one, the sound wasn’t syncing properly with the proximity during testing, it started delaying. Also, my laptop kept overheating and shutting down multiple times when I used the program. 

The concept was cool! especially seeing the inner workings. I appreciated the attention to detail! For instance, while testing the card, I noticed the animations included shadows, which enhanced the illusion of them being in the room.
