Augmented reality test


Evaluation

Evaluation


The purpose of my project was to create a Campaign which will raise awareness to the little things people do on an everyday basis and to prevent people from doing these ‘little crimes’. For some, they might not be seen as crimes however these things need to be prevented. I believe my installation will help to do so, due to the fact that it raises awareness of these things in an interactive way. I have created a digital gallery which includes 6 photographs of 6 different things which help to raise awareness of for example: drinking in a public place, throwing cigarettes on the ground, breaking into someone’s car, stealing a mobile phone and driving while talking on the phone. Each photography has augmented reality built within it. If you go over the installation with an electronic device such as a mobile phone or a tablet, the photography changes into a video which is like a continuance from the photo itself. My campaign is called ‘Notice’ and the logo includes an eye above the word Notice. The logo in my opinion is successful due to the fact that it suits the theme, is simple and very easy to remember. This makes it easier for users to spread word about it as it is also easy to remember. The installation works successfully with the photos changing into videos which creates an atmosphere of a modern gallery. This is because instead of people standing watching each photo, they are interacting which each one through electronic devices in order to find out more about what is going to happen. I have had a few issues where 1 photo wasn’t working due to the lighting, which made it difficult for me to work with as it wouldn’t work when it was too dark in the room. I have also had a few technical issues which took me a long time to fix. Overall, I am pleased with the outcome of my installation as I believe I have met my objectives and have achieved what I was planning to achieve when planning what to do for my project. The photography has come out to be clear considering the A1 scales. All photographs have a specific theme and all match together. The yellow highlights give each photo a spark which is different to any other photographic images however this is something I was aiming for as I wanted my photography to stand out and be different. Next time I would do a few things differently however everything has worked as planned. I am working on advertising this installation through the word of mouth and also showing different sort of audiences what I have created and how it works.


Final Photography


This photograph shows an underage teenager holding his bag in a park while looking ahead. Nothing suspicious is within the photo. However, due to him holding the bag, if makes you wonder ‘why is the bag bright?’ then the audience might think ‘what is in the bag?’ the augmented reality will show a short video clip of the teenager taking alcohol out of the bag and drinking it in this public area which is illegal. Many people in reality think that its okay to bring your own alcoholic drinks to the park however it is still a pubic area and it is not allowed. In addition to that, this teenager is under the age of 18 meaning he shouldn’t be drinking.


This photograph shows actor number 2 sitting in the park on the bench while holding his phone. I have highlighted the phone so that the audience think ‘why is the phone highlighted? What is going to happen to the phone?’ the augmented reality will show actor number 2 walking past casually and suddenly taking this phone and running away with it. This is in another word theft. 


In this photograph, actor number 1 is smoking a cigarrete. Many cigarettes are highlighted on this photo. This makes users think ‘it must be something to do with smoking as there are many cigarettes on the ground’. The augmented reality will show the UNDERAGE teenager smoking which is illegal, but also throwing it on the ground.


In this photograph, it is a little trickier to give a clue to what will happen next. This is why I only created a thinking bubble over actor number 1. Perhaps looking at the environment will get you thinking where he is and what he is thinking about. The augmented reality will be of him running towards a car and breaking into it.


In this photographs, actor number 1 is sitting on a concrete wall near an entrance to specific house numbers as you can see from the sign. The door is highlighted in order to make users think ‘is somebody going to open the door? Is he going to break in or do something with the door?’ The augmented reality will be of the actor running towards the doors, knocking and running away which is other words is called ‘knock and run’ this is disturbance.
