Introduction
AchARya — literally “teacher” in Sanskrit — is an augmented-reality textbook companion app. Built for the 32-Hour Startup Challenge in Unity using the Vuforia SDK, it turns a static science textbook into an interactive experience.
How it works
Specific diagrams in the book are chosen and indexed as image targets. Pointing the app’s camera at one of these diagrams displays interactive content — 3D models or videos — layered directly onto the page, helping students visualize concepts that are hard to grasp from illustrations alone.
