WebAR — in the browser
A digital layer over the alleys of Al Fahidi: place labels float around you, and old photographs of Dubai settle over the scene in front of you — all inside the browser, with nothing to install.
Your phone's camera and compass become a magic window: point the phone around the district and floating labels reveal what you are looking at. Scan the printed Al Fahidi marker to anchor a 3D wind tower and an old-photo alignment card.
Best on a phone over HTTPS (localhost works for development).
A panoramic sweep of the district with the same floating labels and info hotspots. Built for projectors, juries and desktops — the demo never depends on a camera.
Works on any device: drag the scene, use the arrow keys, or the angle slider.
Pick a mode: the camera on your phone, or the simulator on any screen.
Allow camera and motion-sensor access when the browser asks.
Move your device — or drag the scene — to explore the floating labels and open their stories.
Print the Al Fahidi marker (or show it on a second screen) and scan it in live AR.
A high-contrast wind-tower glyph. Print it on A5/A4 paper or display it on another screen, then scan it in live AR to summon the 3D barjeel and the old-photo card.
Matte paper and even lighting track best.
Three public-domain photographs travel with the experience — blend them over the live scene with the before/after slider.
