Client Requirement

Our client from South Africa approached Hyperlink InfoSystem to develop an Augmented Reality based hunting game that uses real-time radar to place 3D animals in front of the hunter and shot them in the AR mode. The app is available on both Android and iOS platforms.

Challenges

1. Real-Time Avatar Challenge:

Whenever a player plays the game, the avatar's movement is decided based on the player's velocity. Managing and moving the avatar as per the player's speed was indeed demanding and challenging. Using functions of GPS.Lastdata.Latitude class of Unity 3D, our developers, managed this scenario quite efficiently.

2. Markerless Augmented Reality:

During development, it was quite hard to develop and implement the object in a real-time environment. An object's amalgamation in the player's real-world environment was one of the most challenging and most demanding parts during the entire game development, however, with the help of UnityEngine. WebCamTexture class of Unity 3D, the whole scenario was handled by our developers.
