Exercise Title: Vuforia Part 3: Scan-A-Can

Purpose: Apply previously learned techniques in Unity to create a uniquely designed project.

Description: In this assignment each student will design a can, cup, or bottle to hold your new special brand of beverage. What is your favorite beverage? What does it taste/smell like? Does the beverage have any special memories associated with it. How does it make you feel? Each student group will discuss their favorite drinks and come up with a newly branded concept for their beverage. You will then design a logo and container for this brand.  The final step of this project will be creating an augmented experience on top of this logo. Perhaps the app plays a song or video when you scan the container with your phone. Or maybe a mascot pops out from the image on the cup.

Materials:
