The use of the location and positioning sensors of a smart device in an augmented reality app

Main goal of bachelor‘s degree final work – to create an augmented reality app using location and positioning sensors. This work contains analysis of four similar solutions, which are based on augmented reality, use cases of augmented reality mobile applications, analysis and comparison of possible implementation tools. During this work functional and non-functional requirements were specified. A use case diagram was created to represent system’s scope, summarize users’ interactions with the system. “MongoDB” database’s schema was modeled. Implementation of project consists of creating augmented reality mobile application which uses location and positioning sensors. Cross-platform mobile application was created using „React Native“ framework, to implement augmented reality technology „ViroReact“ framework was chosen. Mobile application is created for „iOS“ and „Android“ operating systems. To serve and save data „Node.js“ was created, which handles mobile application‘s HTTP requests. Server was set up in „Heroku“ cloud service, database was setup using „MongoDB Atlas“ service. Testing was done using „Samsung S7“ and „iPhone 11 Pro“ smart phones. During testing data was imported using „Google Places API“ service. Application was tested following specified test scenarios
