Tutorial
This section will guide you through the process of creating your first indoor navigation app using IndoAR.
First click on “New project” in the “My projects” section. This will lead you to the overview of all the available AR solutions we provide as part of our AR ecosystem. Please choose IndoAR. If you are using the template for the first time, the system will ask you to request access, providing a few details about the plan, demos and projects.
As soon as you have been granted access you are ready to create your first project.
Adding app information
Simply type in your project and company name. The combination of these two fields will automatically create your app ID, which is important later on to load your project on your mobile phone. The app ID for your project is always visible on the top left corner of your screen when you are working in your project.
Style your app
In the “Style” section you can style the start screen of the app. You can add and change the backgrounds, insert a logo and a logo thumbnail. The logo can be scaled. You can also customize the buttons of your app by selecting the desired color and font. This ensures that the app is in line with your corporate identity. On the top left corner you can choose a preview device to see how the start screen will look like on mobile and tablet devices.
Import your map
Import your first scan, see Map Import for more information.
Set up your map
Using the admin interface, you can open your imported map and set up points-of-interest (POIs), Tours, etc.
