Maps & Dioramas AR(MAD) is an innovative augmented reality (AR) app for iOS. With MAD, users can bring detailed 3D maps and dioramas into their homes, providing an immersive and educational experience like never before.
Hello Friends, I'm super thrilled to be able to share this product after working on it for over 6 weeks. As a tech tinkerer with a love for learning, traveling to historical places, and looking at maps, I couldn't help but build this one to discover the power of augmented reality in learning.
As a father of a 6-year-old, my ability to travel has greatly reduced but my curiosity has only increased. I believe AR is a great way to look at things with more depth and detail than a video.
I already have a ton of features that I would love to see in this app but I want to know what the community thinks about it. Is everyone having a similar experience? Is spatial audio with maybe ChatGPT integration needed? Is this the right time to look at 3D content creators or make stuff on my own? Please use it and let me know. Thanks
Love the quality on panoramic nation park maps.
Was curious to check London maps. But, the 3D rendering quality is poor. Need more improvement in terms of quality when zoomed in.
Coming to monetisation, would be better to setup virtual billboards and monetise with ad placements - kinda a like a virtual world. (This my personal opinion, need better user research to implement this so that you will know what kinda ads you can run. If this app usage skyrocket and have decent user base, i think this will make sense)
Love the product overall. Keep up the great work!
@thinkwithnikhil that’s a great feedback. I loved looking at those maps in 2D and now 3D. The landmark 3D models were Google’s Map Tiles API so a bit constrained there. The idea will be to eventually onboard creators better than me who can publish these maps & dioramas. I will keep experimenting with monetisation as well. Thanks again.
