Augmenting Reality
summary
A prototype implements indoor wayfinding by aligning a digital office map to physical space using ARKit, SceneKit and Swift with visual markers and saved world maps, and computes routes from waypoints using Dijkstra. It demonstrates feasibility without third‑party 3D engines but shows practical limits: saved world maps work effectively within about a 7×7 m area, lighting and IMU drift need periodic correction, occlusion can hide virtual arrows behind walls, and continuous camera/ML use drains the battery.
