Abstract

This project aims to develop an interactive augmented reality (AR) application designed to enhance the experience of exploring historical sites in Melaka, Malaysia. By utilizing markerless AR technology, users can engage with detailed 3D models of Melaka's historical sites without the need for physical markers. The project seeks to address the challenge of making cultural heritage more accessible and engaging in the digital era by combining immersive technology with educational content. The development process involved using the Blender for 3D model creation and the Unity engine and AR Foundation toolkit for integrating AR functionalities. The application features seven significant historical sites, each meticulously reconstructed in 3D and paired with informative descriptions. This blend of interactive technology and educational material is intended to provide users with a deeper understanding and appreciation of Melaka's rich cultural history. The primary objective of this project is to deliver an engaging, user-friendly experience that brings history to life through advanced AR technology.
