How to Scan & Explore

Get started with AR in just a few simple steps:

  • Grant Camera Access: Allow camera permissions when prompted to enable AR tracking.
  • Find a Marker: Locate an AR marker image (vintage anatomical illustrations work best).
  • Point & Scan: Aim your camera at the marker. The 3D model will appear automatically when detected.
  • Interact: Once the model appears, use gestures to explore, tap Info for details, or start a quiz to test your knowledge.
  • Good Lighting: Ensure adequate lighting for best tracking performance.
  • Stable Position: Hold your device steady for initial marker detection.

📱 Controls Quick Reference

  • One Finger Drag: Rotate the 3D model
  • Two Finger Pinch: Zoom in or out
  • Two Finger Drag: Pan/move the model
