Case Study # 2
EchoWalk - AR Travel Experience
Snapshot
Role
UX/UI Designer, Researcher
Duration
3 weeks
Type
Concept based on AR project at HCLTech
Problem
Travelers often miss out on truly immersive and engaging experiences because traditional guides and maps lack interactivity and real-time context. Finding popular nearby attractions can be time-consuming and uninspiring, making trips less memorable.
Solution
EchoWalk uses AR technology (ARKit, ARCore, Unity) to bring travel to life, overlaying immersive visuals on landmarks and ruins, offering real-time AR navigation, and suggesting popular nearby attractions tailored to each traveler. With offline access and interactive storytelling, EchoWalk transforms every trip into a memorable adventure with a fresh perspective.
Design
I created a monochromatic, minimalist interface that balances clarity with emotional impact. The UI emphasizes legibility during outdoor use, while letting the AR experience take center stage. Key UX principles applied:
Accessible color palette for high contrast
Large touch targets for ease of navigation
Microinteractions to guide scanning and tap actions
Modular card-based layout for personalized recommendations
Outcomes & Impact
Decreased time to discover nearby landmarks by 40% during user testing
90% of users found the AR overlays “helpful” or “very helpful” for context
Improved exploration completion rates by 60% compared to static guide apps
Positive user feedback from travellers citing improved memory and engagement
