AR Project: Reviving the Traditional Games of Pakistan/

Abstract

The goal of this thesis is to engage younger generations while preserving cultural heritage through the creative integration of Augmented Reality (AR) technology to revive and promote traditional games of Pakistan. The necessity to develop immersive experiences that re-establish people's connections to their cultural heritage is important. As these cultural games face decline in popularity, this research aims to harness AR to engage younger generations, preserving and promoting cultural heritage in an interactive manner. The project incorporates engaging illustrations and animations that enhance the user experience, making the games visually appealing and capturing audience attention effectively. Additionally, this thesis emphasizes that these traditional games promote not only physical and mental health but also the development of cognitive abilities. By encouraging strategic thinking, teamwork, and problem-solving, these games contribute to holistic development in players.
