Prior to the official filming of the Pulse24 Project, the team conducted tests to arrange 24 lamp posts, ensuring they would be evenly distributed and form a standard semicircular arc.
Limitations of the Traditional Approach
Initially, an angle measurement method was used for positioning: the theoretical angle for each lamp post was calculated, followed by on-site marking. However, practical implementation revealed cumulative errors caused by uneven ground and limitations in measurement tool accuracy. These errors resulted in visually noticeable deviations in the final arc.
Implementation of AR Technology
To address the shortcomings of traditional methods, the team adopted an Augmented Reality (AR)-based positioning solution:
Predefined the precise coordinates of all 24 lamp posts in a 3D model.
Used AR software and devices to project virtual marker points onto the actual ground.
Placed lamp posts directly according to the projected markers.
This approach eliminated manual measurement entirely, significantly improving positioning accuracy. The final lighting array achieved the intended design specifications.
