Abstract

A visualized interactive application of a mechanical arm based on augmented reality is designed and developed by using Unity 3D software and Vuforia development kit. The visual application design scheme based on augmented reality is proposed, and the technical process is specifically explained. The key technology of the visual interaction of the mechanical arm is achieved by constructing the three-dimensional modeling of the mechanical arm, realizing the augmented reality function of this application and setting the virtual button for human-computer interaction. The feasibility of realizing the visual interaction of the mechanical arm by using Unity 3D and Vuforia SDK and the interaction method based on virtual buttons is verified through the display of augmented reality effects and functional testing of the application on the mobile terminal.
