Augmented Reality App for Location based Exploration at JNTUK Kakinada Sanaboina Chandra Sekhar1, Kadali Sravan2 1Assistant Professor, Computer Science and Engineering Dept, Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh, India. 2Post Graduate Student, Master of Computer Applications, Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh, India. ---------------------------------------------------------------------***-------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract – Location-based augmented reality (AR) reality, the app overlays virtual objects and information technology utilizes GPS and geolocation data to track the user's position and cover digital information or objects onto the real world. By pointing camera at the environment, the user can see virtual objects or information overlaid onto the real world. This technology uses computer vision to seamlessly integrate the digital and physical worlds, providing an immersive and interactive experience for the user. This project aims to develop an AR application that utilizes GPS to locate and identify every department and various places in JNTU Kakinada. Additionally, the project seeks to integrate the latest AR Image Overlaying Technology to provide complete faculty information of the staff in the CSE Department, enhancing their overall AR experience. This advanced technology blends real-world and digital information seamlessly, creating an immersive experience. It makes exploring JNTU Kakinada easier than ever by using GPS. Key Words: Augmented Reality, Global Positioning System, Virtual Objects, AR Application, Camera, JNTU Kakinada, Seamless integration.

1. INTRODUCTION The AR app for location-based exploration at JNTUK offers users an exciting way to discover and explore the campus using augmented reality. By leveraging the camera and GPS capabilities of their mobile devices, the app superimposes virtual objects and information onto the real-world view. Users can download and install the app, granting necessary permissions for camera access and location tracking. Once installed, the app utilizes GPS to determine the user's location within the JNTUK campus. By the surroundings and matching them with GPS coordinates, the app identifies the user's position on the campus map. This enables the app to provide virtual content specific to the user's location.

onto the live camera view. Users can explore various points of interest within the JNTUK campus, such as buildings, landmarks, and recreational areas. By scanning these locations, users receive real-time details, multimedia content, and historical information. The AR app also offers immersive and interactive experiences. Users can explore the campus and get the details of every department and staff information.

2. PROBLEM STATEMENT Develop an AR application that utilizes GPS to locate and identify every department and places in JNTU Kakinada. Additionally, the project seeks to integrate the latest AR Image Overlaying Technology to provide complete faculty information of the staff in the CSE Department.

3. LITERATURE REVIEW The comprehension of various augmented reality techniques is a key focus of this literature study. We took a number of stages in our investigation, including the following: • K. Gangurde et al.,[1] demonstrated how AR can be

utilized to overlay virtual objects seamlessly into the real world and discussed its potential applications in fields like gaming, education, marketing, and industrial training. T. L. Chou and L. J. Chanlin, [2]. In their paper presented the results of a study conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed location-based learning system. The authors discussed the impact of AR and location-based learning on student engagement, motivation, and learning outcomes. They may also highlight any challenges or limitations observed during the implementation.
