Anotácia:

Augmented reality technologies have become more available in the mobile sector. It creates an excellent opportunity to improve a mobile service by introducing AR experience for users. There is plenty of handy AR frameworks, which can assist in building an Android application with augmented reality. It is beneficial to do research on picking the right one. This thesis aims to determine a way how to build an AR tool for the Kiwi.com application. This feature should help its users to avoid additional fees for excess baggage by introducing AR bag measuring tool for Android smartphones. Based on the research of similar feature implemented by Kiwi.com's competitors and survey of available AR frameworks, the best way to develop the feature is to combine the usage of Android camera API, ARCore SDK and OpenGL ES. The result of the work indicates that the selected tools can provide sufficient functionality to build the AR bag measuring tool, which is convenient to use by Kiwi.com customers and provides accurate results.
