AR-AQ-Bau — Use of Augmented Reality for Acceptance and Quality Assurance on Construction Sites

https://nachhaltigwirtschaften.at/en/sdz/projects/ar-aq-bau.php
I developed an augmented reality application for quality assurance in the AEC industry.

The project consists of two main parts:
- The dashboard is a web app where the user can upload/view/manage their building information models (BIM).
- The augmented reality (AR) app is an app where the user can precisely position and track virtual models within the actual environment.

HoloLens Remote Expert

The remote expert enables a person to see and 'feel' the environment of another person wearing HoloLens.

Features:
- Two-way audio/video communication.
- Spatial geometry streaming from HoloLens and rendering in the web app.
- Freehand drawing tool in AR.
- Screen sharing: PC to HoloLens.
- File sharing: PC to HoloLens.
- Remote screen recording (record HoloLens video/audio/holograms and instantly save on remote PC).

Piano for Peace — Amsterdam

https://ovos.at/en/projekte/piano-for-peace-amsterdam-2/
A live stream in memory of the legendary bed-in by John Lennon and Yoko Ono

On March 26, 2012, a live stream of the “Piano for Peace” campaign recalled the legendary bed-in by John Lennon and Yoko Ono in the Hilton Hotel in Amsterdam. The microsite linked the event with the online community. From March 23-25, users could play their songs via a virtual piano on the microsite and optionally save a picture of themselves.

Always up for a Challenge

It's a Chrome experiment with a Halloween cam. Transform your face into ghost mime using face detection and WebGL filters. It can be used for Chrome and Firefox only and needs good lighting conditions.

• Edit: Now Edge, Safari, Android, and iOS. For iOS, it only has image uploads.

Fluent in Manipulating Pixels on Your Browser

A browser-based game with some awesome nostalgia graphics and sounds.
It came out as a weekend project just for practicing game development on pixel shader skills. Graphics and audio used for the game were already in the public domain.
