We had a little BB9e robot, and since it was programmable, we wanted to make an app where we could point our phones at a locations using AR and let the robot move there.
A Snapchat lens that allows you to control a virtual BB9e robot, essentially demoing our initial idea.
iOS AR App initially (xcode & swift), but ended up using Snapchat lens studio (javascript), and 3D modelling tools such as Maya, meshlab, and Blender.
Connecting to the BB9e droid didn't work because the Saphero software wasn't updated in a while, which didn't let us make our own app. The Saphero EDU app which let us connect didn't provide enough functionality for our needs.
