byap.ar

byap.ar is an AR-powered marketplace built with Flutter. I developed features that allow sellers to generate 3D models using photos or iPhone LiDAR through photogrammetry. Buyers can view items in their space via ARKit integration for a realistic preview. I handled both frontend and backend (Node.js/Next.js) components, enabling seamless listing, model rendering, and AR experiences.

Challenge

Online shoppers often hesitate to buy physical products without seeing them in person, especially when size, fit, or aesthetic matters. Traditional product photos lack spatial context, making it difficult for buyers to imagine items in their environment. Sellers also struggle to create engaging 3D listings without expensive equipment or technical skills.

Objective

To bridge the gap between digital listings and real-world context: let sellers create 3D models from just photos or iPhone LiDAR (via photogrammetry), and let buyers preview products in their own space using ARKit, all inside a seamless mobile-first experience built with Flutter.

Results

byap.ar merged mobile, AR, and 3D commerce into one platform. I implemented both the Flutter frontend and the Node.js/Next.js backend, enabling 3D model generation, listing management, real-time rendering, and immersive AR previews. Buyers could make confident decisions through realistic spatial visualization, while sellers enjoyed a frictionless 3D listing process.
