Abstract

Santa Clara University has hosted numerous guided campus tours as a way for students to understand better and immerse themselves in the university's culture and environment. However, group sizes for these tours are limited and may fill up quickly, leaving students to compete for these tour slots. As such, accompanied by the continual growth in admissions reaching new highs each year, the situation presents a great need to help first-year and prospective students navigate the campus grounds and understand and learn about the campus history and culture.

To resolve this problem, we have developed an augmented reality web application allowing visitors to tour Santa Clara University's campus anytime. This app will help alleviate some of the pressure on incoming and potential first-year students with having to sign up for an on-campus tour. It also allows people to explore the campus at their own pace and convenience and familiarize themselves with the school's alums.
