Deskkart- Furniture Mall with Augmented Reality

Abstract

It is a trend that long has been making, thanks to the success of e-commerce sites like Amazon, Ebay, Urban Ladder, and other, and has motivated traditional interior designers' brands, sellers and buyers to change the way they operate. More options are offered online than in store, and it's becoming more common for retailers to leverage their physical locations as logistics centers and showrooms places where consumers can collect online orders or view products. But like any other products, online purchasing of product related to interior is quiet challenging. It would be difficult for consumers to get feel of interior products and so many questions emerge before purchasing e.g. How the Sofa will look? How it will fit in the living room? Is it matching with other interior? In this paper we are trying to get rid of all these questions by introducing a system using Augmented Reality. The System will consist of two major parts i.e. Mobile Application with Augmented Reality support and bringing interior decorators/sellers/end user customer on single platform based on Cloud. Product Creators can upload 3D Models and Images to the System with product details like dimensions, availability locations, price etc. End User can we all these products on the Android app. Using uploaded 3D models and in build mobile camera, end user can get look and feel of products with the help of AR. The system will also help end user to give review or contact the retailers for extra details.
