3M Recall

An augmented reality mobile app that enables users to identify physical hardware products and visualize their functionality in real-time. By scanning devices such as headsets, drills, or electric toothbrushes, the app overlays interactive AR guidance that explains components, usage steps, and operating behavior. The experience enhances understanding, supports training and onboarding, and reduces reliance on manuals by delivering intuitive, context-aware interactions directly on the physical product.

Project Overview

The project involves the design and development of an AR-based mobile application that allows users to identify physical hardware products and understand how they work through real-time, interactive augmented reality overlays. By scanning items such as headsets, drills, or electric toothbrushes, the app visually explains components, functions, and usage directly on the device, creating an intuitive and hands-on learning experience.
