Presentation

This project has been realized for a VR course at Polytech Paris-Sud.

It allows students or personals to get the schedule of a room thanks to a QR Code placed on the door.

How it works

This projects contains to sub-projects:

• A NodeJS script used to make a REST API providing the paginated schedule. When querying the schedule for a specific room, it retrieves the information for Polytech's scheduler (ADE) in an iCal format, then orders, paginates and transform it in a JSON format.
• A Unity project made with Vuforia. The result is an Android app using the camera to track the target and the QR Code.

What it needs

To run the API (one is hosted, optional) :

• NodeJS with NPM

To run and build the app

• Android SDK for your phone
• Unity (strongly recommended: 2017.4.2f2, available here)
• An Android phone - if you want to test it on a device

How to run

To run the API

Go in the RESTServer folder. Run the following commands:

npm install
node icalParser.js

You can test the API by navigating to http://localhost:1234/info/1396.

To build the app

Using unity, import the project.

It already contains Vuforia's development licence. Ensure your Android SDK is installed and that your phone has the USB debugging on.

If you want to use your API : open ScheduleRetriever.cs and change the API_URL parameter to your own URL (localhost or hosted).

Go to file and select Build & Run. That will generate the APK file and upload it to your phone.
