I’d like to put together a technical demo for a business venture. Here is a high level overview of what I would like in the demo.

I’d like to be able to open up my AR app on my Android phone, and be able to see an AR projection (a beacon of sorts) above my friends head as he walks around the room, as I look through the viewfinder of my phone. We would have my friend wear an electronically modified wristband to communicate location information, or if it’s easiest we’ll use his smartphone to do that.

Now comes time for implementation. What general steps would you take to begin this project?

I’m interested in using positional beacons placed around the room that will communicate with my friends wristband his precise location. Then, using that data, feed it into an AR app capable of rendering a beacon in real time over my buddies head.

I must humble myself and realize some small pieces of advice would mean everything to me. Whatever you have to offer, I’d love to hear it.

Thanks.
