Abstract

In effort to attract higher tourist expenditure along with higher tourist arrivals, this paper proposes a tourist application called the SCAN-ME , which operates by making recommendations to user based on the travel objective and individual budget constraints. The applications relies on augmented reality technology, whereby a three dimensional model is presented to the user based on input from real world environment. This project was developed using Autodesk Maya, Unity, and Vuforia. By developing this application, tourist enriches the real-world with interactive virtual information that allows visitors to unfamiliar locations to identify the most important and interesting points of interest and learn more about their surroundings. User testing returned a favorable feedback on the concept of using augmented reality in promoting Malaysian Tourism especially in Penang. The scope of this project are for visitor .The target user of this application are the tourist who come to Penang for holiday. The objective of this project are to study an application which uses paper maps as base map and overlaying digital information which is accessed through a mobile device .Besides, to develop an AR Technology in tourism that can interact the real and virtual object and to evaluate easy access to information and reliable. This project use Waterfall Model. The Waterfall Model illustrates the software development process in a linear sequential flow; hence it is also referred to as a linear-sequential life cycle model. This means that any phase in the development process begins only if the previous phase is complete. In waterfall model, there is no overlapping in the phases. This application gives more attractive information to tourist and will helps them to understand more about places in Penang.
