This is absolutely ridiculous to charge for. Mic quality, teaching tempo, tons of issues. No it should be a paid course.

I was skeptical at first, but this course exceeded my expectations in every way. The instructor's expertise, teaching style, and enthusiasm make it a must-take for anyone interested in AR development.

By Ananya Anvi Singh on 8/23/2025

As a beginner in AR development, I was hesitant at first, but this course made me feel confident and eager to learn more. The instructor's guidance is top-notch.

By Holmen Foss William on 8/16/2025

Combining VideoPlayer with tracked images was something I’d never built before. Now I have an AR app that brings printed flyers to life with embedded videos. Super cool.

By Wien Svanhild on 8/16/2025

Now that I understand image tracking and video overlays in Unity, I can envision a whole range of AR projects—educational tools, interactive marketing, you name it. Fantastic starter course.
