PlayGAMI: augmented reality origami creativity platform

ABSTRACT

PlayGAMI is an augmented reality origami creativity platform. It has the fun of designing, folding origami and the magic of AR all in a single experience! Our platform lets a user draw on real origami paper and turn their creation into a virtual origami action figure/game character! Further, we use GANs that interpret certain drawn symbols to interactive game elements. The final customized design can be posted to an online 3D Gallery for viewing and sharing on social media.
