\nYOKOHAMA (Se\u00f1or Tomato) \u2013 I had two iOS apps that use AR (Augmented Reality). So what’s next? Am I going to develop another AR app? Well, I was thinking about developing an app that allows the user to overlay a bunch of lines over concrete blocks for the construction industry. Then I’ve changed my mind and ended up creating another AR app. This new release is called Wall Pipes<\/strong>. No, the next one in line is not an AR app. It’ll be a desktop application.<\/p>\n

Wall Pipes is an iOS app for iPhone and iPad users that allows them to cast one or more drainage pipes against the wall using Augmented Reality (AR). This app is for plumbers and others dealing with drainage pipes, tubes and fences who need to quickly design a pipe on the camera screen. The app supports a simple square-shaped pole and a long cylinder. Additional pipe types are available as two groups of add-ons that include L-shaped pipe, J-shaped pipe, Cross Wye, Side-Outlet Elbow, Double-Wye Fitting, P-Trap and more. The app supports different colors (20 of them). You can rotate one and change the orientation (vertical or horizontal). Also, you have total control over the overall object length, the object radius and other properties.<\/p>\n

When the app starts up, choose one of the measurement units that the app supports: Centimeter or Inch. Then either tap Individual Cast or Group Cast. If you select Group Cast, the app lets you erect multiple instances of the same object type you select. For example if you want to create the feeling of being behind bars, you can erect several dozen vertical, long poles with a single tap. Otherwise, use Individual Cast especially if you want to save the current dataset as a file so that you can reproduce pipes from a file.<\/p>\n

Note that there is no guarantee that your screen tap will always produce an object on the camera screen. When it comes to Augmented Reality, there are some factors including light are involved that this app has no control over. The same is true when you try to reconstruct pipes from a file.<\/p>\n

Although users have access to two simple pipe types without add-ons, they will get unlimited access to all 14 object types for 48 hours after initial launch. So try using the app when you have chance.
