Malaysia’s biodiversity forests are producing numerous species of plants. Books, picture walls, posters, and brochures often use to display these plants’ static images to promote these wilderness treasures. Though the use of these static images fits its purpose, they are less attractive in providing information. ARPlant prototype provides an interactive application that enhances rainforest plants’ information displayed using the mobile platform. We use the Mobile Application Development Lifecycle (MADLC) to design and develop ARPlant. We gauge potential users’ requirements and needs by conducting a survey. We then conduct the user testing using the System Usability Scale (SUS) score. The augmented reality in ARPlant allows users to learn by interactively exploring rainforest plants. Users can view the plants in a 3-dimensional environment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
