Augmented Reality Printing Guide
Goal
Implement an augmented reality (AR) treasure hunt game. The user is supposed to find hints in AR which lead to minigames which the user has to complete/win to finish the game successfully.
Requirements
It must be a mobile AR app which runs on smartphones.
The game must include the following components:
Treasures/Hints in AR etc. which the user must find to enter the minigames
Structure
Minigame 2: must include AR elements and image or object tracking
Minigame 3: must include AR elements, should be more „action“ related
Problem
Students in the university find PDF tutorials for printers difficult to navigate, leading to confusion and inefficiency
UX Issue
Traditional PDF guides are lengthy, complex, and not user-friendly for tech-inexperienced users.
Need
A more intuitive, easy-to-follow, and accessible tutorial format for students to simplify the printing process.
