Andriod-Based Tour Guide Application For Pampanga Heritage Using Augmented Reality [manuscript] / Arnold S. Dela Cruz, Aldrin O. Manalo, Carl Grey S. Ventura. - Magalang, Pampanga : Pampanga State Agricultural University, July 2022. - x, 88 leaves ; 28 cm. + 1 computer disc (4 3/4 in.)
As the first province to be founded by the Spaniards in Luzon, Pampanga is considered as a province with great heritage as countless of historical events have been embarked on almost every part of the land which makes them as sites every tourist would not want to miss as it rekindies the passion of individuals to explore more about the history behind each heritage. However, due to the breakout of COVID-19 pandemic, people are forced to stay at home for their safety which makes the heritages left unexplored and aimost have been forgotten with the history it witnessed. This project was designed with the primary objective of developing a user-friendly system which allows individuals to virtually explore the historical places in the region through Augmented Reality which makes it possible for people to explore the history behind every heritage without leaving the comfort of their homes. The research methodology used in this study is the Rapid Application Development (RAD) RAD is an agile software development approach that focuses more on ongoing software projects and user feedback and less on following a strict plan. As such, it emphasizes rapid prototyping over costly planning Boehm el. In developing the application, the system used Unity and C# @8 programming language. A questionnaire has been distributed online to thirty (30) respondents (combined students and teachers) to evaluate the application software performance. A cumulative score of the respondents and descriptive writing was used to interpret the data. Based on the results, most of the respondents evaluated the system and mobile application performance as "Strongly Agree," garnenng a score of 3.61, indicating that the system meets its required functionality and supports respondents' needs. Therefore, the developed system was found to be beneficial for students, teachers, and tourists in terms of exploring heritage places virtually.
