# mixare

mixare (mix Augmented Reality Engine) is a free open source augmented reality browser, which is published under the GPLv3.

This fork has been created in the wake of a Master Project of @MelanieWe and @pokerazor. It continues to work on the library and app.

Major additional features:

• introduced routing capabilities (using locoslab)
  • recalculate when diverged too far
• introduced 3D rendering of markers and route
  • different color for walked part
• introduced settings activity^

Some additional changes compared to the official repository:

• switched build system to gradle and IDE to Android Studio 1.5, bump API version to current 23
• merged master and develop branch and some other commits, pruned stale/orphaned branches
• removed all Google dependencies
• switched mapsforge to current 0.6 version
• cleaned code a bit, started fixing the lint warnings, removed deprecations, renamed artifacts and heavily refactored internal code structure to be less monolithic, more spread over files/classes, especially in the marker rendering of Mix/Augmentation Activity with it's structure of layered Views
• fixed some minor bugs in DataSourceList and with marker position rendering
• made some minor improvements in performance
• switched menu to material style side drawer (using MaterialDrawer)
• introduced HUD to display status information (also moving Radar and RangeBar formerly known as ZoomBar into it)
• activated arrow rendering configurable per DataSource
• updated german translations

More work to do:

• continue to clean and refactor
• rework concurrency structure to move work into background worker threads
• maybe introduce more GUI improvements
• maybe introduce caching and offline mode

Compatible to Android 3.0-6.0 (API levels 11-23)

The current version uses a position at the Campus Schützenbahn and a destination at the main Campus Mensa in Essen, Germany as defaults, shows the entrances of the Uni in 5km radius and calculates a route from position to destination. It will get a position from the system, if available and recalculate. It should work at every university around the world and display it's entrances, provided, they are tagged correctly in OpenStreetMap (entrance=* as part of a building=university). But you can introduce and display all desired geo features by adding your own DataSource through the settings.
