The below timeline outlines a roadmap for developing Perception, an augmented reality application aimed at simplifying the interior design process. The app will leverage the power of AR technology to empower users to visualize furniture placement, experiment with color palettes, and make informed design decisions in their own space.

Perception

An Augmented Reality (AR) mobile application that allows users to visualize and place virtual furniture in real-world environments using their smartphone camera. Built using Kotlin and ARCore, this app is designed to help users make smarter interior design decisions by experiencing how furniture fits and looks in their space — before buying.
