Drone-based AR game

Abstract

Augmented Reality (AR) and drones is an increasingly more popular hobby over the last few year. This project aims to develop a game that implements the concept of AR with drone technology with the following objectives: Introducing drone flight system, raise awareness of nutritional value of various food items, and hand-eye coordination training. AR-based drone game is designed to complete the objectives. This report covers the game design and considerations done prior to the development stage, as well as the implementation of the game design in Unity3D game engine. The report includes the flowchart, scripts, assets, and examples done throughout the development of the software. The report concludes that the game developed is able to achieve the initial objectives set prior to the development. However, unfortunately, the project faces software limitations when integrating the drone camera with Unity3D. Hence, the game has not reached its full potential as of now but does still create a unique experience for its players.
