In today’s digital landscape, ARway stands as a beacon in the augmented reality (AR) space, particularly with its innovative venue maps. These maps are not just about navigating a space; they’re about creating an engaging, interactive experience for users. In this blog, we’ll delve into the best practices for designing venue maps with ARway, ensuring a seamless and enhanced navigation experience.
Creating a Unified Experience
The key to effective venue mapping lies in the integration of separate maps into a comprehensive one. This approach ensures a unified and smooth navigation experience across different spaces. ARway’s Creator Portal facilitates this process, allowing creators to design efficient venue maps that enhance the user’s journey.
Map Activation and Alignment
Map activation is crucial for accuracy and consistency. ARway creators are advised to activate individual floor plans before integration. Aligning these floor plans precisely is essential to maintain consistency across the venue map, enhancing the overall user experience.
Streamlining Transitions with Access Points
Strategic placement of access points near connector pins is vital. This setup streamlines transitions between maps and optimizes the user experience by enabling easy navigation between different levels.
Optimizing QR Code Positioning
QR codes should be placed approximately three meters from connector pins for optimal scanning without interference. This positioning is crucial for enhancing the accuracy and reliability of the navigation system.
Enhancing Navigation with Connector Pins
Connector pins are a critical element in guiding visitors smoothly through map transitions. They should be installed at key entry and exit points, like elevators, stairs, bridges, and escalators.
Creating Connections
Efficient navigation also depends on how connector pins are used. Creating these connectors at entry/exit points for elevators, escalators, stairs, and bridges is fundamental. Grouping connectors for features like elevators ensures a cohesive experience.
Previewing Map Levels
Visitors benefit from being able to preview different levels of the venue map to plan their route before navigation. This feature adds an extra layer of user-friendliness to the ARway venue maps.
In conclusion, ARway’s venue maps are transforming how users interact with space. By following these best practices, creators can ensure that their maps are not just a tool for navigation but an integral part of an enhanced spatial experience.
