- Click on landmarks to see their text descriptions.
- Toggle UI on and off so that you can see landmarks onscreen more clearly.
Generates new landmarks using the AR+GPS Location package, given a latitude, longitude, and label into the UI input fields. Adds new landmark entries into the UI dropdown menu, and allows the user to retrieve latitude and longitude through selection from the menu.
Prompts the user for permission to access the Android device's GPS (fine location) and camera.
Using the Android device's GPS, retrieve the user's latitude and longitude and display them on the UI input fields.
Assigns default to new landmarks. Can potentially be expanded to retrieve text descriptions from API.
Trigger display of landmark description with touch.
